It is with great regret that we must announce the postponement of SCREAM 2021. Under the continuing health guidance of AHS & The City of Edmonton, it has become clear that we simply will not be able to make the festival happen this year. Despite our efforts to move Heaven & Earth, the critical care capacity in the Edmonton Zone ICU remains significantly over capacity - and Edmonton’s Electronic Dance Music Inter-Agency Panel has made it clear that this event cannot proceed as planned. At this time, Boodang remains committed to reducing the impact of COVID-19 in our healthcare system and is complying with all official recommendations.
We cannot begin to express our disappointment with this decision or how sorry we are that it has come to this, but please know that we did everything within our power to try and prevent this from happening.
Rest assured - many months of work on the labyrinth, art installations, stage designs, and decor will not go to waste. We are pleased to announce that SCREAM WILL BE BACK on October 29th, 2022 at the Edmonton Expo Centre. A majority of the line-up will remain intact (more on this later as we work through the final confirmations and logistics).
All tickets purchased will be automatically transferred to October 29th, 2022. All ticket holders also have the option to transfer their ticket(s) to Frequency on February 20th, 2022 (Edmonton Expo Centre), or request a refund. Scream SOLD OUT over a month in advance, so we recommend that all ticket-holders hang on to their tickets. Please check your emails in the next couple of days for instructions and if you scheduled a COVID-19 rapid test, you will automatically be refunded. Please remain patient with us as we navigate this process.
We want to thank Vignettes, Big Art, All Star Show Industries, and the Edmonton Expo Centre for helping us try and execute our vision this year. Most importantly, we want to thank YOU for supporting us. We are so very grateful, and we WILL see you soon.
Love Martin, Paul, & Viet
Boodang.
P.S. Andrew Rayel will still perform in Edmonton on October 30th alongside Avira at Union Hall. More on this later.
