Sweden Rock Festival 2020, evento que estava previsto se realizar de 3 a 7 de junho em Sölvesborg, Suécia, foi cancelado devido à pandemia Covid-19, mas vai pagar às Associações que empregam 3000 trabalhadores que suportam o evento. O festival que tenta fazer a melhor mistura de Classic Rock, Hard Rock, Metal e Blues tinha como destaques para este ano os Guns N’ Roses, Volbeat, In Flames, Nightwish, Mercyful Fate, Social Distortion, The Hellacopters, Within Temptation, Gojira, Accept, Opeth, Blue Öyster Cult, D-A-D, entre outros.
SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL 2020 CANCELLED
In the last few weeks we have been working hard investigating the possibilities to reschedule the 2020 festival from June to the end of the summer. For a while it looked doable, as we received a very positive response to the plan from artists, suppliers and collaborators. However, due to the unprecedented situation it has now become clear that cancelling is unavoidable. Instead we are now focusing our efforts towards 2021.
For many of you, our visitors, Sweden Rock Festival is one of the highlights of the year. The festival is also of great importance to a number of others, such as crew staff, suppliers, partners, associations, camp sites, hotels and more. A lot of people have been working hard for a very long time to prepare for another sold out event. Hence, we put a lot of energy and time into exploring alternative options. We are now taking all that hard work and enthusiasm and putting it towards 9-12 June 2021. We promise to make next year’s festival the best one ever!
Associations and Sweden Rock heavy metal camp
Sweden Rock Festival has over 3,000 people working for the festival through a number of regional associations (sports clubs and similar). Each association is compensated by them invoicing Sweden Rock a fee based on the number of hours worked. For many of them, this money is the largest revenue post of the year and crucial for their operations. The associations do a fantastic job and their commitment is indispensable for the festival’s existence. We have therefore decided that even though this year’s festival is not taking place, we will pay full association fees to all the associations that we have agreements with and who also have an ongoing member activity all year round.
Together with our partner Studiefrämjandet, we also still aim to put together this year’s “Sweden Rock-kollo” – the summer camp for girls wanting to learn to play metal. However, it will take place at a later date and in accordance with the national health recommendations.
