It's sad news for all you music lovers out there.
Dauphin’s Countryfest is officially postponed until 2021.
Festival General Manager Rob Waloschuk says it’s been a difficult month, but ultimately the decision was made in consultation with government officials, and public health.
The festival was scheduled to take place this summer from July 2nd - July 5th, 2020.
For those of us who already purchased a ticket, Rob says they will be honoured at Dauphin’s Countryfest 2021. Carrying the ticket over will help support the festival, especially since they're already in the process of scheduling bands for next year.
Dauphin’s Countryfest 2021 will be happening June 24th - 27th.
Ticket-holders will also have the option to get a refund. The festival General Manager is promising they will reach out to every ticket holder, and is asking everyone to be patient with them as they sort through the aftermath of the postponement.
Rob says this is not an easy time for Manitobans right now, and it certainly isn’t easy for festival organizers either. He’s encouraging community members to continue supporting one another through this challenging time.
Festival organizers will be providing the most up-to-date information on their website, at www.countryfest.ca.
