The Goldenvoice-promoted fest at Dignity Health Sports Park would have featured Morrissey, Bauhaus, Blondie, Devo, the Psychedelic Furs, Echo & the Bunnymen and a bunch more.

The announcement on the festival’s website:

“After much consideration and monitoring of the ongoing uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are disappointed to announce Cruel World 2020 will not take place. All we want is to dance and sway to songs we love, but our number one priority is the health and safety of you and everyone involved in the festival. We appreciate your understanding, and we can’t wait to come together soon.

All 2020 tickets purchased through our official ticket provider Elevate will automatically be cancelled and refunded. Tickets will be refunded within 30 business days.”
