Sparticus Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 21 minutes ago, Daniel Ferreira said: They postponed it because they were going to start assembling the Festival now. The organization does not yet proceed with any confirmation on the poster because the conversations with the artists will only start now. But they will probably keep the same names, in Portugal Rock in Rio is very criticized because the festival itself has little Rock to be called Rock in Rio. Thanks, each to their own, I think the lineup for the foo fighters day looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mln Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Apparently Tomorrowland and RW are considering moving to late August / early September: https://www.gva.be/cnt/dmf20210308_95630993 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heti Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 IF the festival will happen later this year then the most honest & sincere policy would be announcing the majority of the delayed 2021 line-up the same time when they'll tell us about the late holidys scenario.

It will be nothing compared with a normal RW. Nice European acts will be there, but a major part of the line up will be moved to other years. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No official confirmation yet, but Lowlands said they want to have the festival at their usual dates. International line up, but no big American headliners. Depends on the details of the government risk fund. Edited March 8, 2021 by Judithmt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lighthouse Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Well, out of the 4 announced headliners (PJ, Gorillaz, 21P, RHCP), the only one European one (Gorillaz) is by far the most interesting one for me. But let's see how things turn out. Good to see things moving again, with APE rescheduled for august as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken19 Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 I think you have to look at bands like Royal Blood, Fontaines, Balthazar, Altin Gun, Paul Kalkbrenner... But no guarantee. No big production or Crew. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually would take that with Editors, Royal Blood, Fontaines, Balthazar, Altin Gun, Paul Kalkbrenner. A 2 day festival first week of september would work for me.

Ken19 Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 They plan to announce the cancellation of the original weekend before the end of March, and at the same time the light version and... But I think you’ll be all surprised. Fingers crossed. Don’t shoot me if you have to wait a little bit longer. But there is really light at the end of the tunnel. We are lucky that a lot of the suppliers are born in the lap of Rock Werchter (stageco, zippola, powershop, ...). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
