Desert Trip, which brought together six legendary artists over two weekens last October at the home of the Coachella festival, will not happen this year, Billboard reports.

Last year’s blowout gave about 75,000 fans the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Neil Young, Roger Waters and the Who on three consecutive nights. They even ended the weekend with a message on the Desert Trip that read, “See you next year,” but alas it won’t be the case, festival founder Paul Tollett of Goldenvoice telling Billboard, “Maybe someday in the future we’ll do something similar.”

Goldenvoice announced earlier this year that a new festival, Arroy Seco Weekend, would debut June 24-25.
