Regular Music statement (20th April 2021)

“It is with a heavy heart that, due to physical distancing measures that are still likely to be in place in July, we have taken the decision to postpone this year’s Summer Nights at the Bandstand until summer 2022.  

The festival has a deserved reputation for being a very special experience for both audience and artists alike. For the audience it is seeing their favourite artists up close, the great atmosphere, mixing with friends and singing along with the crowd and for the artists, its connecting with the audience in such an intimate setting and feeling the energy from an arena full of excited fans.

As much as we would dearly love to be able to return this summer, it will not be possible to go ahead with the festival with restrictions in place or to guarantee the experience that everyone has come to expect. Even in Level 0, the lowest level of restrictions, social distancing and other restrictions will still likely be required at outdoor events this July. We have decided it would be best for all to postpone the festival until next year.  

We are grateful to all of the artists for rescheduling their shows and delighted to confirm that we are able to keep the same line-up in place for 2022.

Wednesday 27 July - Suzanne Vega

Established in 2014, Regular Music’s annual Summer Nights festival, which runs from the end of July into August each year, has become a firm favourite with music fans and scooped the Unesco City of Music Best Live Event at the Scottish Music Awards in 2017.
