Bluesfest owner Peter Noble: ‘I don’t want to have to sell my event’ – Sydney Morning Herald
The industry veteran says there could have been “other options” instead of cancelling the first major music festival in the country since COVID struck.
Weve dropped $10-11 million, a day before the festival, he says. He cant even begin to estimate the losses suffered by the various suppliers in the region – including the caterers who stocked up in anticipation of feeding 50,000 people over five days, whose food will mostly go to waste – but says there would be 600 or 700 workers on site, 250 just in our bars.
Noble isnt alone in having pushed for governments to play the role of insurer of last resort – industry group Live Performance Australia…
