The festival promoter has been hosting weekly virtual Rave-A-Thons online. Though Beyond Wonderland isn’t happening this year, Insomniac is still finding ways to bring music to fans. Insomniac’s announcement that it was canceling Beyond Wonderland came on the same day that the chief marketing officer for the new Virgin Fest said that organizers were still planning to go through with that Los Angeles festival for the first week of June. Originally scheduled for March 20-21 at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, it was moved to June 19-20 after festival organizers received word from county and state officials that the event could no longer be held because of the virus. The festival had already been postponed prior to the cancellation for 2020.
