I can assure you that no one is as disappointed as I am about this, but with the current restrictions, and the threat to people’s health, this year is just not possible.

I did think long and hard about the decision to move, and I felt next year was the better option. With the mix of people losing jobs, and other shows starting back up to towards the back end of the year, I didn’t want it to be a fight between what shows people can afford to see, each show should be packed with people out for a good time.

Don’t forget, we also have the Blackwater Conspiracy headline Show on the 19th September 2021 which will be going ahead as planned.

I would like to thank everyone so far for their support, through all of this and the bands and their agents in particular, sorting through now 3 different Heretic Fest arrangements.

It’s not all bad news, a couple of slots across the weekend have been made available, and I am now officially opening up the shortlists again, if you have already applied for 2021, please apply again to make sure you don’t miss out.

In a band, have a friend who is or just want to help? Share this post around to reach as many applicants as possible. All applicants must send me their latest EPK to: hereticfest@gmail.com (no private messages to the Heretic Fest page or my private page as these will be missed, Heretic Fest messaging will be for customer queries only)

Ticket update:
All tickets purchased through See Tickets WILL REMAIN VALID.
Any tickets purchased through bands, you will need a full refund as these will now be VOID.

With all that in mind, call your hotel, book off work and grab your tickets, because Heretic Fest is here to stay, it just moved a little further away, big things are happening at Heretic Fest and I can’t wait for you all to be a part of it’s future.

Stay safe, stay awesome, Hannah Heretik x
