IN the wake of this year\u2019s Meredith Music Festival\u2019s cancellation, it\u2019s sister event, the Golden Plains Festival has also been shelved in 2021.<\/p>\n
To be held at Meredith\u2019s natural amphitheatre, the longstanding festival was anticipated to be going ahead in March of next year.<\/p>\n
The news of the cancellation was recently announced in a statement from festival organisers under the moniker of Aunty Meredith.<\/p>\n
“The space-time Continuum has wibbled, and it has webbled, but it has not wobbled open wide enough to grant safe passage for Golden Plains this Autumn,\u201d the statement from Aunty Meredith said.<\/p>\n
“When favourable atmospheric conditions return, the full, rolled-gold, four-dimensional GP experience will land again.<\/p>\n
“All dancing, all singing from the same songbook, in a close encounter of the fifteenth kind, one more spin around the sun should do the trick.”<\/p>\n
As an event that champions local musicians and brings international acts to the region, this year\u2019s Golden Plains was one of the last festivals in the state before the pandemic hit the nation.<\/p>\n
Hopeful for the continuation of both Meredith and Golden Plains Music Festivals, the statement closed with, “Out here on the farm, meanwhile, we replenish \u2026 preparations aplenty for Meredith Thirty.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
