Country Thunder – the massive country music festival held annually in the Craven Valley – was officially cancelled for 2020 on Tuesday, after organizers held out hope as late as possible that the world-wide outbreak would calm enough to allow the show to go on.
The event was originally set to take place July 9-12 and would have featured headliners Clint Black, Luke Combs, Dan + Shay and Kane Brown.
Have no fear, though, it will all be back in 2021.
“I think it’s going to be even more special,” said Country Thunder Saskatchewan CEO Troy Vollhoffer in a press release. “This is where we come from and this is where it all started.
“We want to thank all the fans in Saskatchewan for their patience, loyalty and enthusiasm as we navigated details for next summer. We look forward to delivering the kind of world-class experience that the greatest country music fans anywhere have come to expect.”
For those who have purchased tickets, all options will be automatically rolled over to the rescheduled dates, which will see the four-day festival run from July 8-11, 2021. More information will be provided to ticket holders on Friday, June 12.
For those looking to get a jump on next year’s event, four-day general admission passes, single-day tickets, reserved seating, platinum, camping and all the extras are available by visiting countrythunder.com.
