Time Warp has released the statement: "Dear friends and fans. We are very sorry to announce that, given the current situation in Germany, we have no other choice other than to cancel Time Warp in Mannheim on April 2nd, 2022.

"Nothing hurts us more than not being able to meet our many friends and fans from around the world, not being able to present you with our new stage designs, not being able to spend the longest night of the year together."

Time Warp added that this cancellation was due to Germany having "no reliable basis which we can use to plan or promote large-scale festivals" or to plan the "Time Warp experience you would all be expecting".

Rescheduled for April 1, 2023, Time Warp will put "all of the creativity, energy, and planning that [they] have invested in this year's edition" and add that all 2020 ticket holders will receive an automatic refund.

Shows in Chile and Brazil are still set to go ahead this spring.
