Spilt Milk festival has been cancelled in an other blow to Australian music lovers.
It is the latest in a series of festivals to be cancelled as the industry endures a tough year.
The festivals organisers broke the sad news on Instagram.
‘Sorry pookies, we couldn’t get you the Spilt Milk you deserve this year. Sooo imma dip for a bit and come back when I can make all ur dreams come true. i miss u xx SPILT MILK,’ the statement said.
Spilt Milk was last year headlined by Post Malone and Dom Dolla.
It is a travelling festival with stops in Canberra, Gold Coast, Ballarat and Perth.
It is unclear why the festival has been called off, however others have struggled to sell enough tickets.
Splendour in the Grass, Groovin the Moo and Falls Festival were all cancelled this year, as were Sunshine Coast’s Caloundra Music Festival, Victoria’s Coastal Jam and Adelaide‘s Vintage Vibes Festival.

The NSW parliament has launched an inquiry into the festival industry to understand the challenges organisers face.
Fans were upset to see Spilt Milk cancelled, but were relieved by early signs suggesting it would be back next year.
‘I think I’d rather see you guys take a year off than drop a lineup people would be disappointed with. Hopefully you’ll come back with a bang next year,’ one said.
Another was shocked that ‘a festival that sells out every year, can’t even go ahead’.
Another wrote: ‘What the f*** is even happening to Australian festivals?’
