SXSW’s organizers said in a statement released back in March about next year’s festival, ‘We at SXSW are hopeful that once people feel it’s safe enough to return to what will be the new normal of life, there will be a real enthusiasm for getting back to the things that brought them joy or opportunity or just the simple need to be out amongst humanity. We can’t wait to bring people together once again to meet and share ideas.

‘We’re looking forward to bringing the music world back together next March to see where we’re headed.’
