This year's Forest Live has been postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Following the cancellation of the 2020 event for the same reason, the concert series will now return in June 2022, retaining its 2021 headliners Keane, Rag'n'Bone Man, Jess Glynne, Madness, and Doves.
Keane will play Westonbirt Arboretum on June 10, Cannock Chase Forest on June 11, Thetford Forest on June 17, and Delamere Forest on June 18, while Rag'n'Bone Man will appear at Westonbirt Arboretum on June 9, Cannock Chase Forest on June 10, and Thetford Forest on June 16.
Jess Glynne will play Cannock Chase Forest on June 9, followed by performances at Westonbirt Arboretum and Thetford Forest on June 12 and 19, respectively. Madness, meanwhile, take over Westonbirt Arboretum on June 11 and Thetford Forest on June 18, with Doves closing the series at Delamere Forest on June 19.
In a statement, Forestry England said:
The Government's roadmap out of lockdown has made it clear that we cannot hold our Forest Live concerts this summer. We are extremely disappointed, but this is the best way to keep our valued customers safe, as well as the staff, volunteers, contractors and artists that make Forest Live possible.
We look forward to welcoming Forest Live fans to see their favourite artists performing in the nation's forests next year. We are delighted to confirm that all Forest Live 2021 headline acts have been able to reschedule all their performances and will be joining us in June 2022. All bookings remain valid for the 2022 dates and customers will be contacted by their point of purchase. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
We would like to send our deepest apologies to everyone who was hoping to come to a Forest Live gig this summer. We can't wait to experience the best live music in our beautiful forests with you next year and thank you very much for your continued support.
