CALGARY – A Calgary festival known for blending the worlds of art and science has been cancelled for another year.
The creators behind Beakerhead say the pandemic has forced them to skip the 2021 spectacle.
“In the midst of uncertainty around travel and timing and all the practical stuff, Beakerhead will not be presenting our usual Festival and Spectacle this year,” Beakerhead said in a statement on its website.
“But we are cranking up the creativity and finding new ways to share and care and bring some fun! So, be vaccinated and be vigilant because you just never know where we might turn up!”
The annual event, which first launched in 2013, normally takes place in September.
