I saw the announcement about the Oyster festival being cancelled but they still haven't said anything about Bandito fest. It had the better band line-up with Steve Earle and Horton Heat, etc. I can't imagine it happening with all the pandemic issues still raging. The new date is only 3 weeks away.

Anybody heard anything recently?

Got a notice from Bandito that 2020 is officially cancelled, with a see you in 2021 parting shot. Bummer but not unexpected.

If you don't mind me asking, how were you somebody they would notify? Were you on an all-access list or something? The official website still has not indicated anything, 225 magazine is still hyping it as if it's going to happen. It wouldn't surprise me if there are plenty of people with hotel reservations or other plans in conjunction with the event who should know what the status is.

Bandito posted an announcement on Instagram 3 days ago about the cancellation.

the rumblings have been out there for a while that this fest probably wasn't going to happen. 2021 will be great though

Sidetrack. Nola on Tap clearly not happening but I would've expected an email or something on the website acknowledging and saying see ya next year! or something. Radio silence.
