The government have stated that they are not going to support mass gathering events with emergency staff for at least the next 12 weeks. No gig/festival can go ahead without that support I wont dispute the 12 weeks though an events company I work with which relies heavily on medical support is working g on a rolling 8 weeks for their summer events. They are currently planning up to mid may. I'm certainly not holding out hope but just wanted to point that out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash92 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 ADTR tour postponed. The tiny shread of hope is getting smaller by the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pottsy2913 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 With ADTR postponing their tour, think that all but confirms Slam Dunk has bit the dust as well. Such a shame, such a good lineup, fantastic bands I'd seen before in Sum 41 and Don Broco who are ace, and bands who I was keen on seeing for the first time like Billy Talent and State Champs. Health and safety first though, but damn, such a shame. I do wonder whether A Day To Remember will switch venues because of this change? Leeds Arena and Wembley Arena perhaps?

R Shah Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 This is Tomorrow in Newcastle, the same weekend as Slam Dunk, has been postponed to August. Do we think Slam Dunk could be postponed to August/September? Otherwise, praying both Sum 41 and Broco can be rebooked for 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moams Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Do we think the delay could be to try find a weekend where they can keep the majority of the line up plus tie it in with a day to remembers tour so they can both utilise the same setup?

Pottsy2913 Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Surprised they haven't said anything yet about ADTR rescheduling. Potential signs that they are planning to move Slam Dunk to fit in with ADTR's new date, like you said @moams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary1979666 Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 Guys, without wishing to be the bringer of doom, but this ain't going to happen. To coordinate a fest like SD take a lot of organising, esp with the overseas bands - it's about whos available - so the chances of even getting the main stage rescheduled is slim, let alone ADTR and the rest of the line up. Don't get your hopes up and get ready for full on cancellation. If they manage to get any consolation gig (not fest), this year, then consider it a bonus. I am truly gutted about this.

foolee Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 Rescheduled to a Sunday with no bank holiday the day after, that’s me out unfortunately unless I can change my ticket to Leeds but then again are we sure this will go ahead in September as I’m not too sure?

Event organisers seem to be getting advice from government that august onwards is still possible.

Pottsy2913 Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Dance Gavin Dance and Issues can’t make the new dates. Wonder if any artists from R+L would potentially stick around to perform at SD given the chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justanothername Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 Your Demise wont be at the new dates which is a shame as they were such a big draw for me. Aaron West tour is rescheduled for the week leading up to Slam Dunk so I'm guessing The Wonder Years are still planning on playing as well.
