We’ve been sitting on the edge of our seat waiting to hear what the plan for Sonic Temple 2020 is and festival producer Danny Wimmer Presents has released the following update about their 2020 music festivals:
“There are no pre-existing guidelines for what festivals should be doing during this unprecedented time. Like the rest of the music industry, we continue to assess new information and make the best-educated decisions possible. We know you have been anxious for updates from us and we are at a point where we can answer many of your questions about how each of our festivals may be affected by COVID-19. We are crushed to say that Epicenter, Welcome To Rockville and Sonic Temple are being canceled due to the governmental restrictions on mass gatherings. We respect these directives and recognize they are in the best interest of the greater good, as well as the health and safety of our fans, musicians, partners, and staff. Before accepting this fate, we worked really hard to try to reschedule the festivals. Unfortunately, scheduling conflicts, venue availabilities and a
number of other factors out of our control made postponing impossible. Make no mistake, each of these festivals will return in May 2021 bigger and stronger than ever! Let’s be perfectly clear — FULL REFUNDS will be available to everyone who has purchased passes to Epicenter, Welcome To Rockville and Sonic Temple. In addition to offering refunds, many of you have said that you would prefer to apply your 2020 purchases towards next year or exchange your pass for another one of our 2020 festivals. Based on your feedback, we are offering pass holders three options:
(1) Full refund
(2) Apply your pass to 2021
(3) Exchange your pass for another 2020 DWP festival
Complete details will be emailed out to our pass holders within 72 hours.
For you the 105.7 The X Rock fans who won tickets to this festival with us, we are extremely bummed here at the X that the 2020 Sonic Temple Festival has been cancelled due to this unprecedented health crisis. We are unable to replace or exchange these tickets for another event or concert, per our rules. Furthermore, we are not clear as to how the year will move forward. You will be removed from each prize, and you are not responsible if there are any taxes associated. You are immediately eligible to win tickets or prizes for any future shows when we get back up and running with giveaways. The 90 day rule is also removed if you were to fall within that window. We thank you for understanding at this difficult time. Thanks for being the Best Rock fans on the planet! Be safe! If you have any more questions please don’t hesitate to ask.
