Another big Aussie music festival axed for 2024

August 9, 2024 5:20

Adelaide’s Harvest Rock festival is the latest live music event axed for 2024, dealing yet another blow to the Australian industry.

After a year that has already seen major festivals like Splendour in the Grass, Groovin the Moo, NYE in the Park, and most recently Spilt Milk be cancelled, promoters of Harvest Rock confirmed this year’s event will not go ahead.

“We’ve been working hard to make Harvest Rock III another incredible event, however we have made the difficult decision to not hold the festival in 2024,” a statement released on Friday read.

The two-day festival, produced by the Live Nation-owned Secret Sounds, last year went ahead at Adelaide’s Rymill/Murlawirrapurka and King Rodney and featured a stellar line-up that included UK heavyweight Jamiroquai and US artist Beck, as well as big-name local acts like Paul Kelly, Tash Sultana and Ocean Alley.
