The organisers of 2000 Trees have announced that the event has been postponed until 2022, as a host of big-name stars who were due to perform would not be able to attend as a result of Covid-19 travelling restrictions.

The music festival was set to take place in Upcote Farm near Cheltenham in July 2021, however the event will now take place on Thursday 6 July 2022 to Sunday 10 July 2022.

A statement posted on the 2000 Trees website says: ‘We have been forced to take the absolutely heart-breaking decision to postpone 2000trees to Thursday 6 July to Sunday 10 July 2022.

‘Up until a week ago we were still furiously working behind the scenes to try make the festival happen. We really wanted (and needed) a party just as much as you this year.’

Organisers have also announced that some performers have already been confirmed for the 2022 festival including: Jimmy Eat World; Thrice; The Amazons; Dinosaur Pile Up; Knocked Loose; The Get Up Kids; Dream State; Laura Jane Grace; Anti-Flag; Lonely the Brave; Stick To Your Guns; Deez Nuts; No Devotion and Dragged Under. With a third headliner set to be announced soon.
