Bluesfest Byron Bay going ahead

Bluesfest Byron Bay has the green light to go ahead. Although the Easter music festival will look a little different this year.

Bluesfest Byron Bay will go ahead mask-free and at half capacity if current COVID-19 restrictions remain in place for the Easter music festival.

Festival director Peter Noble has announced that the NSW Government had approved the event’s 150-page COVID-19 safety plan and, ongoing restrictions permitting, it will run as planned in April.
