NBHD Weekender has a new date for later this year, Getintothis’ Lewis Ridley with updated news for the Warrington festival.
NBHD Weekender 2020 will now take place in September, as organisers postpone the May festival due to coronavirus.

Taking to social media the festival announced: “In light of the news surrounding the spread of the COVID-19 virus and following government guidance we have decided to postpone the fesival.”
Continuing, the festival also said: “We have been working non-stop with the artists’ teams to replicate the existing lineup as closely as possible.”
