Read this: 14 of the saddest pop-punk songs ever
“2020 has been a tough year, and the world is hurting, but we are proud to offer our fans something to look forward to,” say Sad Summer Fest. “Our scene is hurting too. Touring is the lifeblood of all the artists on Sad Summer and beyond, and without the ability to tour for all of 2020, many are struggling to make it through. The same is true for venues, promoters, road crew, security, venue staff, etc.
“The most important thing you can do to support the artists you love is to buy music, merch, hold onto your concert tickets, help spread the message, and invest in music. Fans are the backbone of our scene and we will get through these times together.
“Over the coming weeks, we will be highlighting various charities, with a portion of ticket sales benefiting each. It is important for us to do our small part in helping the larger issues we are all currently facing.
