We worked really hard to bring you our 2020 line-up in 2021, but the world had other ideas. Much has changed since we announced our 2021 line-up in December and some of our pals from across the pond are no longer able to make it. pic.twitter.com/r3umRURyRA— EndOfTheRoadFestival (@EOTR) May 5, 2021
While the festival sold out in March, a new limited release of tickets will go on sale from May 20 on the official End Of The Road website.
The provisional return of festivals this summer comes after a series of pilot events took place in Liverpool last weekend as a test for the safe return of live events.
A clubbing event called The First Dance was held at the Bramley Moor Dock in the city, with no masks or social distancing necessary – see footage from that event here.
Last Sunday (May 2) saw Zuzu, The Lathums and Blossoms playing to 5000 fans in Liverpool’s Sefton Park.
It is hoped that the Government’s Events Research Programme will provide key data to support the reopening of live events and venues by way of mass testing.
