NOTE (from The Sisters Live News page)

As a result of Covid-19, all of the upcoming indoor concerts have been rescheduled
for March 2021. This includes the dates originally moved to September. The Suikerrock
and M'era Luna summer festivals will also take place in 2021 instead, and the rescheduled
Polish festival date from May will take place in October as previously announced.
The Chania Rock Festival, which was due to happen in August, has been cancelled.

All existing tickets remain valid for the new dates.


The Visor Fest in Spain on 18 September has meanwhile been cancelled as well, so that the complete summer gigs are off now.
Whether the alternative concert for May in Poland does take place in October seems to hang in the balance.
We recommend you check all your according sources of information regularly.
