The Brisbane leg of metal/punk Full Tilt Festival set for this weekend, has been postponed to Anzac Day Weekend.
With the country trying desperately to get on top of rising Covid cases, the music industry is once again taking a massive blow as a result. Festivals are being rescheduled left right and centre with this popular metal and punk festival the latest casualty.
Full Tilt organisers today announced in a press release – “It is with the heaviest of hearts that we have to announce that Full Tilt Festival in Brisbane will be postponed due to members of Northlane, their touring party and a number of other artists on the bill all testing positive to Covid-19 this morning.’
The rescheduled date for the festival is now over the Anzac Day long weekend on Saturday 23rd April 2022.
Josh Smith, guitarist from headliner’s Northlane has said, “Despite our best efforts, some of us even isolating over the Christmas and New Year period, this morning we’ve had multiple people in our touring party test positive to Covid-19.
“We feel for the organisers, we feel for the staff, our crew, our fans and the other artists, some of which we know have travelled far and wide to attend. We did our absolute best, but we couldn’t make magic happen this time. We look forward to seeing you again soon once we’ve recovered.”
Organisers have expressed their appreciation and patience, sincerely thanking all the staff, agents, managers, artists, venue and crew who have worked tirelessly on the Festival to try and make it happen. They have encouraged everyone to hang on to tickets for the new date!
The rescheduled date for Full Tilt Brisbane is Saturday 23 April with all tickets remaining valid.

Everyone should have a soundtrack playing loudly in the background of their life. I was born moshing to my own beat and have never swayed from my love of music. Spreading my passion through the written word is my soul’s purpose. My punk heart beats loudly with the rhythm of my rock soul. I plan to continue to mosh like no one gives a shit.
