Crowded House cancel Mt Duneed Estate concert

A beloved group of Aussie rockers has cancelled the final four dates of their hit tour.

New Covid variant Omicron XE detected in Australia

Beloved Australian rock band Crowded House have cancelled the final four dates of their Australian Dreamers Are Waiting tour, including Saturday’s show at Mt Duneed Estate.

The cancellation comes as founding member Neil Finn tested positive to Covid-19 on Monday and is self isolating.

“I am absolutely crushed to have to postpone the last 4 shows of our Australian tour as I tested positive yesterday morning for Covid,” Finn said.

“In these very difficult conditions for touring, we were staying in our bubble and observing very strict protocols but somehow the virus still slipped through.

“I am relieved to be only experiencing mild symptoms at this stage and grateful for the protection that my triple boosted vaccination is providing.

“I am so sorry to disappoint our fans this coming week, but rest assured we will be back to make good.”

Angus and Julia Stone and The Waifs were scheduled as support acts.

The shows will be rescheduled and organisers are encouraging fans to hold on to their tickets.

Rescheduled dates will be announced soon and tickets for the a day on the green dates will be valid for the corresponding rescheduled shows without the need for exchange.

All existing ticket holders will be notified of rescheduled dates via the official ticketing agency.
