Vanavond is bekendgemaakt dat alle evenementen in Nederland tot 1 september officieel afgelast zijn. Dit betekent ook dat het grootste hardere stijlen festival in de wereld – Defqon.1 – dit jaar helaas niet zal plaatsvinden.

LEES OOK: Defqon.1, Intents, Dominator, Decibel & vele anderen tot september afgelast door coronavirus

Ieder jaar trekken tienduizenden liefhebbers van meer dan 100 nationaliteiten naar de wasted lands van Biddinghuizen, voor één van de absolute hoogtepunten van het festivalseizoen: Defqon.1. Helaas is de aankomende ‘Primal Energy’ editie nu uitgesteld naar 2021, omdat alle evenementen in Nederland door het coronavirus tot 1 september verboden zijn.

“It is with a heavy heart that we have to inform you that, due to the global COVID-19 developments and the necessary precautions taken by the authorities, the 2020 edition of Defqon.1 Weekend Festival will be postponed to 2021.

Words cannot describe how we feel about this news. For months, we’ve been working around the clock to provide you with the ultimate festival experience together with our artists, creators and warriors. We cannot imagine a summer without Defqon.1, however, your health and safety is the top priority. It is in times like these that we must stay united as one tribe. Together, we stand.”

“Forever as one tribe.”

Defqon.1 – Primal Energy is verplaatst naar (vooralsnog) het laatste weekend van juni 2021, waarvoor alle reeds aangeschafte tickets ook weer geldig zullen zijn. Om op de hoogte te blijven van het laatste nieuws, kun je de socials van Defqon.1 in de gaten houden. Lees de volledige statement hieronder.

Dear Weekend Warriors, It is with a heavy heart that we have to inform you that, due to the global COVID-19 developments and the necessary precautions taken by the authorities, the 2020 edition of Defqon.1 Weekend Festival will be postponed to 2021. Words cannot describe how we feel about this news. For months, we’ve been working around the clock to provide you with the ultimate festival experience together with our artists, creators and warriors. We cannot imagine a summer without Defqon.1, however, your health and safety is the top priority. It is in times like these that we must stay united as one tribe. Together, we stand. Your Defqon.1 order will stay valid, meaning that you’ll automatically have access to Defqon.1 Primal Energy in 2021, which will take place last weekend of June*. This applies to all visitors, including those who ordered a Travel & Stay Package. All ticket buyers will be contacted personally by email with detailed information before May 23rd, 2020. We’d like to thank you for bearing with us and giving us the time and space to figure this out. Please head over to Defqon1.com for more information about the postponement of Defqon.1 Primal Energy. Stay safe, stay healthy and stay connected. Forever as one tribe. Defqon.1 * Dates may be subject to change until we receive confirmation from the local authorities.
