The rumours are unfortunately true: Harvest Rock festival is not going ahead in 2024.
Festival organisers took to social media to announce the “decision to not hold the festival in 2024” and thank fans for their support.
In a statement posted on their social media accounts, Harvest Rock organisers had this to say about the cancellation: “Hey Harvest Rockers, and lovers of live music, wine, food and brew. We’ve been working hard to make Harvest Rock III another incredible event, however we have made the difficult decision to not hold the festival in 2024.
“We appreciate the ongoing support of the South Australian Government and we look forward to Harvest Rock in the future 🍒🎸🤘❤️
“For our dedicated fans who bought early tickets in 2023 you will automatically be refunded through the original point of purchase within 14 days.”
