I received this email last night from the Fairbridge Festival.
Sad news indeed

Dear Fairbridge Festival Community,

FolkWorld Inc. has made the difficult decision to cancel Fairbridge Festival 2022 in April. The team has been trying to find solutions to the multitude of challenges that we (and our colleagues in the music and events industry) are currently facing due to COVID-19, but there are just too many uncertainties for us to confidently and safely proceed with an event of this magnitude, at this time.

The Fairbridge Festival production is a complex system, and we acknowledge the impact this cancellation will have on our community made up of artists, suppliers, vendors, staff, sponsors, volunteers, audiences, etc. We thank you in advance for your understanding and on-going support.

Our hearts are heavy, but our passion remains the same – to unite and bring people together, create unique experiences and memories, as well as support a thriving music and arts scene. With every challenge comes growth; and we are working tirelessly behind the scenes to find creative new ways for us to all come together soon.

All tickets purchased will be automatically refunded via Moshtix to the credit card used to purchase the original tickets. Due to the number of events cancelling at this time; please allow 5-10 business days for this refund to occur.

If you have any questions, please email: [e-mail] and we’ll get back to you as soon we can.

Love from the FolkWorld Inc. team – presenters of Fairbridge Festival and more (to come)! ??

Sorry to see this.

So far as I know, the Blue Mountains Music Festival in Katoomba, New South Wales, in March, and the National Folk Festival, in Canberra, in April, are still on.
