slowthai postpones first Happyland festival
slowthai has announced the postponement of his Happyland festival that was due to take place in Northampton next month.
The first edition of slowthai's Happyland festival was set to take place next month at Northampton Cricket Ground with performances from IDLES, Beabadoobee, Greentea Peng, Easy Life, Pa Salieu and more, but this morning (19 August) slowthai shared a statement announcing the postponement of the festival.
slowthai wrote, "I'm taking the decision to postpone the inaugural Happyland festival due to take place inn September 2021. Unfortunately due to things out of my control we couldn't put the show together at the standard that I wanted for the first ever event, so I feel the right things to do is put the dream of Happyland on pause for now and look to next year."
He added, "The idea of 15,000 people coming together under the Happyland banner filled my heart and gave me so much energy and I want to thank all of you who got your tickets to this happy place, I'll see you soon."
