SweetWater 420 Fest will be postponed, possibly canceled

Earlier this week, organizers believed the SweetWater 420 Fest scheduled for late April could proceed as planned.

But due to continued virus concerns, the April 24-26 music event at Centennial Olympic Park is being postponed, and possibly canceled, as well as the SweetWater 420 Fest 5K.

Festival organizers are evaluating if a rescheduled event is possible or if the weekend featuring a reunion of Oysterhead, as well as the Trey Anastasio Band, Cage the Elephant and dozens of other acts will be nixed until next year.

Fans who cannot attend a rescheduled date will receive a full refund (as will all ticket buyers if the festival is canceled). More information will be forthcoming by March 20.
