UPDATED: 31 March 2020

Sad, but expected, news that The Great Escape, MIDEM and Xpo North music conferences have taken the tough decision to entirely cancel their events for 2020 - with each promising to return in 2021.

FOCUS Wales, originally set to take place in April, has been able to reschedule their event for October. And Liverpool Sound City has also been able to postpone their annual event until September, so there's still dates in the diary to look forward to.

Check out their statements via the links below for full details...
