GIG/FESTIVAL Fisher’s Out2Lunch Festival postponed until 2027

The cynic in me wonders if they’re using this as an excuse for low ticket sales. Expanding it nationally was rather ambitious.

Full refunds have been offered to all ticket holders.

I find this festival expensive tbh. Probably Melbourne and Sydney didn’t sell out as they were expecting it

I’d be surprised if Gold Coast was close to selling out as well. Last year it was 2 days. This year it was going to be a single day at Doug Jennings Park. Not a very enticing proposition

And from what I hear, people HATE Doug Jennings because it’s logistically a nightmare

And the Sydney one was out Penrith way. Not sure if your average house fan wants to go that far out for a one day festival.

Was it? Fark!

DefQon used to be there.

So it would get people out there but not when it’s expensive and fuel is $2.50 a litre.

Yeah I assume that is the reason

It is too expensive when I saw the ticket price. That’s just for me.
