While live music made a triumphant return in 2021, the weather and a sudden surge in COVID-19 cases haven’t been kind to LiveOne. The promoter and digital media company have announced that they are canceling the Cancún edition of Spring Awakening just weeks before the event was scheduled to take place.

Lights All Night Minneapolis and Insomniac’s Abduction NYE in Seattle both pulled the plug earlier this week due to the sudden surge in cases.
