You would assume it won’t be next year as they usually have it in the city of culture which is Coventry.

Saw it first on Biffy Clyro's Instagram.

This is not going away any time soon... boo.

Could potentially see them doing something similar to what they did in 2018 next year. Have this years lineup take place in Dundee as originally intended, while having a second Big Weekend take place simultaneously in another location with a new lineup.

Dundee gets their Big Weekend original lineup, and the new 2021 event goes ahead. Aware it probably won't be that simple, but trying to think of how it could work.

Or maybe do 2 weekends in a row instead.

So we're getting an online virtual festival- made up of past sets and special sets from artist's homes. Thoughts?

I’m not excited by it. I’m past the whole ‘from home ‘ thing now. 

[TheHungryMoomin]

Line up is out - Sam Smith and Jonas Brothers to headline. I'll be watching in from home; excited for new HAIM and Rex Orange County sets.

What’s the betting, that when they re-play a previous live Big Weekend set, someone’s going to complain to BBC because there’s a crowd..

And one of the tabloids will put a headline up like "Music fans BLAST IRRESPONSIBLE BBC for showing old festival"
