The Black Seeds were set to headline this weekend's Sounds Like Summer festival. But concerns over the latest Northland Covid case have prompted organisers to postpone the Sounds Like Summer music festival in its first year running. Sounds Like Summer spokesperson Jade Atkinson said advice was sought from the Ministry of Health before the decision was made to postpone. With over 1500 people expected to attend, it would be "irresponsible" to have a gathering of that size on the boundary of the Northland region, she said. The wider Sounds Like Summer team made the announcement on their Instagram page last night and thanked their supporters.
