According to the newest statement from The Great Escape, the festival is no longer taking place this year. Hayley Williams was supposed to play there on May 15th, as a part of her solo tour promoting Petals for Armor, as it was announced at the beginning of March.
For now there’s no official comment from Hayley nor her management on it. Lately Williams has addressed fans concerns saying she won’t cancel her tour, if necessary, it would be postponed. Go here to read more about it.
What’s more, the tour won’t start as planned. The Dutch government banned all mass gatherings until June 1st. On May 13th Hayley was supposed to play a sold out show at Melkweg Max in Amsterdam, NL. For now there’s no word on a new date, cancellation or postponement.
By mid-April ticket holders will receive more information about the future of the event – posted @melkwegamsterdam. The show cannot take place on May 13th as the Dutch government extended mass gatherings ban to prevent the spread of #covid_19. pic.twitter.com/2Ss1VBMJXT
