HARMONY BAZAAR POSTPONES 2020 FESTIVAL
Lockeport, Nova Scotia, May 8, 2020 - Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic the Harmony Bazaar Board of Directors have decided to postpone the fifteenth annual Harmony Bazaar Festival of Women & Song set to take place July 24-26, 2020 at Seacaps Memorial Park in Lockeport.
“We want to ensure that our festival-goers are safe and that we can provide the same excellent festival experience they are accustomed to,” said Board Chair Allan Nelson, “we have therefore decided to postpone the 2020 festival until July 23-25, 2021.” The 2021 festival will still celebrate the fifteenth offering of the festival and will be headlined by Halifax native, multi-ECMA award-winning, and Juno nominated artist RIA MAE (riamae.com).
In the meantime, the Society is working on providing alternative programming that can ensure that guidelines set by the Provincial authorities are met, this programming could include online workshops, live-streamed events, and once it is safe to do so some smaller-scale live concerts. More information on future events to support the Society’s mandate of promoting female artists and song will be provided on harmonybazaar.com and social media channels (facebook.com/harmonybazaar, twitter.com/harmonybazaar05, instagram.com/harmonybazaar).
Those who have purchased tickets for the 2020 festival may hold on to their tickets for the rescheduled dates for 2021 or refunds will be offered.
The Harmony Bazaar Society looks forward to providing an excellent festival experience in 2021 and can’t wait to celebrate with our festival family next year! Any questions regarding the future of the festival can be directed to Garrett Chetwynd, General Manager (boxoffice@harmonybazaar.com).
