Beyond The Valley Set Times 2023/24
Beyond The Valley lineup
But that’s not all. Hold onto your festival hats because Peggy Gou is set to take the stage and lead the New Year’s Eve countdown in style. Due to personal reasons, Kelis has had to cancel her global tour, including her Beyond The Valley performance.
“As many of you will know, it’s been a tough couple of years, but I’ve been out there working hard on the road and at home on the farm, all whilst providing stability and nurturing my children,” Kelis shared in a statement.
“I’m afraid to say it but I need to come off the road for a little while to regroup, to be the best mother, to be the best for myself and to thrive in the future. With that in mind I’m having to cancel or postpone all live touring for the foreseeable future. I was excited to be coming back to Australia and New Zealand and seeing you all again. I will be back; I’m making a new record and I’ll be back better than ever but for now it’s a needed pause. Thanks for understanding and your support all these years.”
