Hello,
Following on from our email to you on Wednesday 29 April, we are contacting you again with an update from the organisers of BST Hyde Park 2020.
"The challenges caused by COVID-19 continue to affect the global event industry. After regular consultations with the artist community and The Royal Parks regarding the ongoing crisis, we will continue to monitor the situation before announcing our 2021 programme of artists. As a result, we believe that the best course of action is to automatically refund all ticket holders whilst this process continues. No further action is needed from your side.
Whilst we continue our discussions with the artists, we want to reassure fans that you will not miss out and if your 2020 headliner confirms for the 2021 event, you will be given priority access before the general on sale to repurchase your tickets for that show. Full details will be released upon artist announcement.
You are very much at the core of our 2021 event planning and we would love to hear your thoughts, so if you could please spare us no more than 3 minutes by filling in this survey, we in turn will do everything we can to make BST Hyde Park 2021 the best one yet.
We are hugely looking forward to sharing our 2021 plans with you all and returning to Hyde Park for another incredible summer series."
Following this statement and in line with our standard policy, AXS aim to refund the payment method used for purchase within 14 business days. (During these unprecedented times our customer service department are very busy – on occasion, it may take longer for funds to credit your account).
We look forward to updating you as soon as 2021 plans are ready, and seeing you all again soon.

Well the email mentions that they're still in discussions and that if the band do rebook that those who had tickets will get priority access, so there is some hope that PJ will return. But I must admit, I'm starting to wonder if the delay in announcing the 2021 dates is because they're reassessing their plans. Maybe it would be better for all concerned to rule out touring until 2022, rather than running the risk of having to reschedule a second time. The US dates were announced/cancelled before the Euro dates and there has been zip about the rescheduling of those dates....

I think they will wait till later in the year to decide when there is a better handle on the likelihood of 2021 tour being able to go ahead fully
I wonder whats going on here behind the scenes. Why was Lolla able to re-book both Paris and Stockholm and Hyde Park is not able to solidify them for next year?
My theory is band management was unhappy that BST announced 2020 cancellation before the band was ready to make or at least announce its 2020 Euro postponement and as a result they no longer want to do business with this festival. This is 100% speculation.

A definite possibility. But then I wonder if AXS would have just said PJ won't be returning in that case, rather than stringing everyone along for the last few weeks.
Alternatively, if the team were indeed annoyed by the announcement, they might be insisting that AXS can't confirm that PJ will be returning until the band unveil the rest of the tour.
Gah, who knows. At this point I'm amazed that bands are still announcing tours at all for ANY date. One of my favourite bands Bo Ningen announced yesterday that they're doing a tour in the UK in Nov this year... I couldn't believe it. Seems wildly optimistic to me. But I suppose life has to go on.
I would consider any 2020 dates optimistic as well. However, the Oxford folks may have a vaccine by September, so maybe there’s a chance. Anyway I’d rather see plans get made and adjusted later if needed, as opposed to everything being at a total standstill. Just hold off on non-refundable travel plans.

Refund received here...have been dealing with many of these over the last few months and must say this was absolutely flawless. Good and timely communication and fast on the refund.

Got my refund for BST within about 24 hours. I'm overseas, for what it's worth. Disappointed that it's not happening, obviously...I also had tickets to the second Euro 2020 semi-final, which was going to be one helluva swan song for my 30s. Guess it'll just have to be an overture for my 40s instead!
