Homebake cancelled for 2010
Wed 25th Aug, 2010 in Local News
The promoters of iconic all- Australian festival Homebake have issued a statement announcing the festival will not be going ahead in 2010 – the first time in the event’s fifteen year history.
The statement reads as follows:
Whilst this past weekend witnessed a state of political confusion, we concur that we’ve certainly had our fair share as well. That said and with such a plethora of festival announcements of late, we’ve decided to go against the grain and as such – after much deliberation (& some procrastination) – we here at Homebake festival HQ have decided to take a break and postpone Homebake Music, Film & Arts Festival for this year only, 2010.
As we’ve not been able to have the ‘planets align’ to a standard we feel appropriate to the long standing reputation of Australia’s largest ‘locals only’ event, we’d rather focus on a positive future and are instead planning for a unique return version of Homebake Festival to take place during the first week of December 2011.
The intention is for Homebake to return proverbially ‘bigger and better’ than ever, incorporating even more facets of the antipodean arts industries & with special incentives in place for the few generations of thousands of loyal Homebake devotees whom have attended over the past 15 years.
We ask you to stay tuned for now as we commence preparations for what will be the 16th Edition – Homebake Music, Film & Arts Festival, 2011.
Huge thanks for your patience & we’re looking forward to have you all join us to celebrate in 2011.
