In what is yet another major event postponement announcement due to the COVID-19 situation, Indonesia’s We The Fest will not be taking place this year. The annual summer music festival in Jakarta was supposed to take place on August 14-16, and the team at Ismaya Live are already working on rescheduling for next year’s edition.
Ticket holders will receive emails from the festival’s ticketing partner, Loket.com, soon regarding refunds. However, those who wish to attend We The Fest 2021 next year can hold on to their tickets. In addition to their tickets being valid for next year, attendees will also receive IDR 300,000 worth of tokens to spend at We The Fest 2021.
As part of the statement released by the festival on their social media channels:
“We would like to express our deepest and biggest gratitude to YOU for your endless love and support since our first edition in 2014. We The Fest wouldn’t have become the festival that it is today, with fans from around the globe, if it wasn’t for YOU.
…
As we wait until the gates of We The Fest reopen next year, stay safe, practice physical distancing, and be sure to take good care of each other (virtually!) because we’re going to get through this together. See you all soon!”
