Lakeside 2021 has been postponed.
The annual event that attracts thousands to Rotorua's Lakefront had been scheduled to be held next March. Now, it is not known when it will return.
The iconic free family-focused outdoor concert would have celebrated its 25th birthday next year.

Facebook page, Rotorua Lakeside Concert Charitable Trustees said they believed that given the impact on the community from Covid-19, it would have been inappropriate to start seeking the financial and commercial support necessary to make the event viable.
"The trust wanted to send an early signal to potential funders and the public that Lakeside 2021 would wait until better financial times to stage our milestone 25th concert."
