Moondance Jam Drops National Acts; Will Highlight Regional Acts
UPDATE: Moondance Jam is now offering three options for jammers who already bought tickets:
- Use them this year and you’ll get 4 more general tickets at the Gate
- Exchange for either Deuces Wild Dueling Pianos (August 9th) or Moondance Harvest Moon Festival (September 21st) along with your camping
- Roll them over into next year
In a shocking Monday morning announcement, Moondance Jam has cancelled all national acts for the festival July 18th-20th due to "the present economic climate". The announcement says that they'll instead focus on regional acts.
Moondance Jam 33 Cancels National Acts
For those unable to see the embedded post above, the announcement reads:
"Moondance Jam Announces Lineup Changes Due to Unforeseen Circumstances
With a heavy heart, we announce that due to unforeseen circumstances based on the present economic climate, Moondance Jam will need to make changes to our lineup as we now will only highlight our Regional acts who always put on a great show for our Jammers, while keeping our dates as scheduled from July 18-20, 2024.
For over 30 years, Moondance Jam has been a beloved tradition in Walker, MN, providing a platform for outstanding music performances in a beautiful setting. However, despite our best efforts, we have not met the necessary financial thresholds to produce a festival with national touring attractions this year. In light of these financial hurdles, we cannot proceed with any national touring lineup.
We understand the disappointment this news may bring to our dedicated supporters, and we share in those sentiments. Our commitment to delivering an exceptional experience remains steadfast, and with this in mind, we are bringing back Camp Moondance happening on the same dates (July 18th-20th in Walker, MN) showcasing regional talent, who embody the spirit and passion of Moondance. Please check our website for updates on the line-up to be announced soon.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. All purchased tickets will be honored, and we hope that you will join us in making the best of this year’s event. We remain committed to preserving the magic of Moondance and look forward to your continued support.
Thank you for your understanding and patience during this challenging time.
