FISHER's Out 2 Lunch Festival has officially been postponed, with organisers confirming the 2026 edition will no longer go ahead as planned due to mounting economic pressures. The touring event, which was set to span multiple cities across Australia in May, will now return in 2027, with new dates to be announced.

The decision comes amid what organisers describe as “severe pressures” tied to the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, compounded by a national diesel shortage impacting large-scale event logistics. With fuel supply disruptions affecting transport, power generation and production infrastructure, promoters determined the scale of the festival could not be delivered to the expected standard.

FISHER shared his disappointment in a statement, acknowledging the difficulty of the decision while emphasising the importance of delivering the best possible experience for fans. Promoters echoed the sentiment, noting that postponing to 2027 allows the event to return at full capacity rather than compromise on quality during a challenging period.

Originally planned to take place across Melbourne, the Gold Coast, Sydney and Perth, the national expansion marked the festival’s most ambitious edition to date. While the postponement is a setback for fans, organisers remain confident that Out 2 Lunch will return stronger in 2027 once conditions stabilise.

Out 2 Lunch Festival 2026 pushed to 2027 due to fuel shortages and cost-of-living pressures.

Redwest Country Music Festival is officially set to return in 2026, locking in new dates following last year’s weather-disrupted edition and promising a fresh start for the Utah-born event.

The festival will take place from 16th - 17th October, 2026 at the Utah State Fairpark, with organisers confirming the comeback after severe weather forced major disruptions in 2025. Torrential rain and strong winds led to the cancellation of headline performances, cutting the weekend short and leaving many attendees seeking clarity and refunds after the sudden shutdown.

Looking ahead, organisers are aiming to rebuild trust with fans, offering returning ticket holders exclusive early access and discounted alumni pricing. As part of the offer, 2025 attendees will also receive complimentary entry to a special Thursday night opening concert featuring surprise guests, signalling a renewed focus on fan experience for 2026.

Tickets for Redwest 2026 go on sale 17th April, with the alumni pre-sale beginning at 10:00am and running through to 11:59pm. The lineup is expected to be revealed ahead of the sale, setting the stage for the festival’s highly anticipated return to Utah’s country music calendar.
