Sydney’s boutique festival for hip hop and electronic music lovers Days Like This! won’t be returning in January. The much-loved event set the bar high with its first two editions, so this is very sad news for its devotees.
The statement reads: “After a stellar debut in 2009 and follow up in 2010, Niche Productions and Waterfall Entertainment have decided that January 2011 will not be brightened by Days Like This! After much deliberation, soul searching and many sleepless nights, we have decided to postpone the 2011 festival and look at a new date option for the festival’s return.”
The last line should be some comfort, and the organisers have promised we will be hearing further developments soon.
Days Like This! is a unique proposition in the local festival scene – or as our reviewer put it, “a shining beacon of awesome amidst a backdrop of mediocrity”. with 2010’s line-up an absolute scorcher featuring Method Man & Redman, Roots Manuva, DJ Marky, Joker, Dilated Peoples and plenty more. We sincerely hope it will be back.
