Ellie Lin Aug 2, 2021 – 7:11 p.m. Several acts of the August Psycho Las Vegas music festival will not be able to visit the United States after COVID-19 travel restrictions tightened in response to the new Delta variant sweeping the country . The confirmed cancellations are Mayhem, MGLA and Satyricon. Imperator, Watain, Crippled Black Phoenix, Cult of Fire and Psychlona are applying for entry to the US as part of the National Interest Exception, Psycho Las Vegas said in an Instagram post. “Due to the ongoing international travel ban to the US, the following artists have postponed their performances to next year’s event and will not perform this August: Mayhem, MGLA and Satyricon. All of these bands have approved visa petitions, but unfortunately their local embassies remain closed or unaffordable, ”the festival wrote in a post on Monday afternoon. Efforts continue for Emperor, Watain, Crippled Black Phoenix, Cult of Fire and Psychlona, all of whom have applied for entry into the United States under the National Interest Exception. Please understand that it is unlikely that they will be able to achieve this exception despite our best efforts. ”The festival had previously announced that the performance of these acts would be scheduled for August 2nd. Psycho Las Vegas has seen turmoil since the 2021 festival was announced – it was originally scheduled for May 2021 but has been postponed to August. The line-up has shifted regularly, several acts had to move to the festival in May 2022. Remarks
