Shaky Knees Music Festival Calls Off 2020 Edition

The Atlanta Shaky Knees Music Festival, which had already been postponed until the fall, will no longer continue as planned.

Originally, the event was scheduled for early May, but in the coronavirus pandemic, the festival was postponed until October. Now that the pandemic is raging across the country, the event has been completely canceled.

"The Shaky Knees Music Festival will not take place in 2020," the organizers said in a statement this week. "Although we are disappointed to share this news, the health and safety of our fans, artists, partners, staff, and community remain our top priority. We thank the artists and fans who have planned to join us this year, and we thank everyone for their understanding. ”

Ticket holders will be automatically reimbursed via the point of purchase within 30 working days and must communicate via the point of purchase. Those who have already requested a refund before cancellation will have their refund processed. Although the program for this year's festival has not been announced, organizers have promised that the event will resume in 2021.

It was the last large-scale music festival to be canceled, like Coachella, Stagecoach, Firefly, and Boston Calling. See our full and updated list of canceled or postponed festivals in the ongoing coronavirus pandemic here.
