The ’80s-infused Cruel World Festival happening at Brookside at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena May 14-15 just announced its set times, its three stages and also revealed on social media that “due to visa delays” Echo & the Bunnymen will no longer be performing, but the band “will be back at Cruel World 2023.”

The set times and stage lineups will remain the same for both days of the festival. Though Saturday is sold out, there are still passes available for Sunday’s show for $179 general admission or $799 Clubhouse Platinum VIP at cruelworldfest.com. Parking for both dates is still available for $25-$75 and advance purchase is recommended. Doors open at noon each day.
