That was stated pretty clear before as far as I remember....no SOAD in 2021 at RW.  think they're Graspop Friday headliner which fits perfectly Hellfest scheme

No way they will tour in july. Hellfest is 99% last date and only missing date is Graspop

They will. They are at Mad Cool. 

But looking at the positions they've got on other festivals, I think they are asking a higher position than Rock Werchter is willing to give them.

Werchter gave them Closing Headliner for the 2020 edition before it was cancelled, that's the highest position there is 😅

Are you talking about Puscifer? 

Don't think RW will offer them a high billing as well. That's why Graspop makes more sense.

Do you guys really believe there will be a summer full of festivals like we used to have? Everyone outside this forum is saying that we won't come back to normality until at least christmas 2021, this second wave is more serious than the first, we don't even know if we will have vaccines and, above all, if they will work, in my opinion we will have again small concerts but no way that it will possibile to gather 100k people all together

Can you explain how is the second wave more serious than the first one? Haven't seen any intensive care units overcrowded as it was in March/April.

Please don’t turn this into another depressing Covid thread. There are more than enough of those on the net. 

Wonder where @Jazebel is.

But we can expect some news in the next weekS. Including the sunday headliner. And a brand new promo campaign. 

Well we got RHCP 2 weeks ago...

Anything else in the pipeline? I read your post as there being more news to be announced than just the Peppers.

[P.bintein]

They know now there'll be no festival in 2021. Don't think they'll announce new names. 

It seems there'll be no festival season until 2023.

I think the covid has got into your brain as that's not what the article says.

Do you think to appeal to the local decision makers and to make it go ahead they would make The Barn and Klub C outdoor podia( like slope and main). Helping with the distancing rules.

I know this is difficult due to sound direction without the sides of the tents keeping the sound 'indoors' but scheduling with less crossovers  of acts and turning the tent directions would assist.

Hi Everyone,

Has anyone successfully received a refund?

I applied for one at the end of last week as the 4 of us who were due to go this year all have pretty specific reasons why we cannot go in 2021.

I just got an email from Allianz confirming they are refunding me €11.80 (presumably some sort of insurance i got at the time of booking tickets) but nothing from Ticketmaster.

Just wondering if anyone else has had the same experience?

IDLES supporting Pearl Jam in July now by the looks of the double British Summer Time date so hopefully will show up to Werchter

I received a full refund from Ticketmaster via PayPal.

It is taking some extra time. Some unforeseen, positive, circumstances... but patience will be rewarded.

Do you mean about the refunds or about the names?

If this means SOAD are coming to Werchter I'll wait as long as it takes
