Tocumwal's Good Times festival has been cancelled for this year.
The event was scheduled to be held later this month, but festival director Tara Benney said she was "disappointed" the current situation prevented the event from going ahead.
"There just isn't a way that we can move forward in 2021 in the current climate," she said.
"We wanted to reassure our friends and colleagues in the Toc community we are committed and focused on bringing the best events to you in 2022."

In a press release, organisers said they were "still committed to delivering a new live music event that raises funds for the Tocumwal community".
"They will need our support more than ever when things open up," they said.
"Thank you for your patience, understanding, and the support you've shown to Good Times, this isn't goodbye, just see you next year.
"In the meantime keep spirits high and support your local communities in whichever way you can."
All ticket holders will be refunded, exclusive of the booking fee, over the next two weeks.
