The inaugural ‘Giddy Up’ country music festival slated for Downtown Las Vegas this fall has been abruptly canceled. The three-day event, set to run from October 18-20, was set to feature performances from Lynyrd Skynyrd, Megan Moroney, and the Turnpike Troubadours as headliners; in addition to Chase Rice, Charles Wesley Godwin, Lauren Watkins, Tanner Adell, Josh Turner, Elle King, Kameron Marlowe, and many more artists.
Festival organizers did not share an official reason why ‘Giddy Up’ was cancelled, but posted the following on their social pages: “To our Giddy Up crew: There’s nothing we would love more than to ride through the festival gates with you this October, but unfortunately we can no longer move forward with Giddy Up Las Vegas Music Festival 2024. We understand that many of you who have purchased tickets looked at Giddy Up as the must-attend event of the season, and we are truly sorry. It is not possible to overstate just how seriously we, as producers and promoters, take the decision to cancel this year’s festival. All tickets purchased directly through Giddy Up and our official partners will be automatically refunded at the point of purchase to the original payment method within 7-10 business days. Our team will be in touch directly with more details. We appreciate your understanding, if you have any further questions please direct them to the team@giddyupfest.com. Thank you for supporting live music, Giddy Up”
Fans who purchased tickets can expect to receive a refund to the original form of payment automatically within seven to ten days.
