Ramblin' Man Fair Cancelled, New Dates Announced For 2021

The 2020 edition of Ramblin’ Man Fair has been cancelled.
The rock festival was due to take over Mote Park in Maidstone, Kent between July 17 and 19, with Clutch, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Rival Sons set to headline. Organisers have confirmed plans to return in 2021, with the hope that many of the acts booked for the axed dates will be able to make it next year.
“We had a wonderful set of bands booked to play but the ongoing Covid-19 situation and the UK Government’s total lack of clarity surrounding mass gatherings and the newly announced quarantine period have made this a straight forward decision,” the Ramblin' Man team said in a statement.

Ramblin’ Man Fair 2021 will be staged between July 16 and 18, with ticket holders set to be contacted in the next seven days regarding refunds or rolling over their passes until next year. The organisers’ statement continued:
“Ramblin' Man is an independent festival. It does not have the resources that a Live Nation or an AEG hold. If everyone who holds a 2020 ticket wishes to take a full refund then the 2021 festival becomes a far harder ask to put on to the level that we would all wish to see. To that end we have some incentives that we would like to put forward to our Ramblers in an effort to persuade you to roll your ticket over to 2021.
“All those ticket holders who roll over to 2021 will be eligible to attend an extra night of live entertainment on Thursday July 15 at no extra cost. In addition, we are aware that many of you are Early Bird ticket holders. If you already have an Early Bird ticket for 2020 then it will remain valid for 2021. Our allocation of Early Bird tickets for 2020 sold out in record time and we thank you all. As we are rolling these tickets on to 2021 we will not be issuing any further Early Bird tickets for sale, so please think about holding onto them if you are intending to be with us in 2021.”
Ramblin Man Fair Upcoming Tour Dates are as follows:
Fri July 16 2021 - MOTE PARK Maidstone
Sat July 17 2021 - MOTE PARK Maidstone
Sun July 18 2021 - MOTE PARK Maidstone
