The annual Arts Trail has been cancelled this year, Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council (QPRC) announced on Tuesday.
"It is with great regret that QPRC must once again cancel our annual Arts Trail," the statement reads.
"The COVID-19 pandemic's winter escalation to the north and south continues to threaten us with the possibility of snap lockdowns and therefore it is not feasible to plan a region-wide event that may need to be cancelled at short notice.
"The QPRC Culture and Arts team will endeavour to assist our creative community in other ways and will consider any small scale cultural opportunities in the near future, which support culture and art programs and/or events aimed at enriching our community during the coming months - if the COVID19 situation allows."
This is not the first event that has been cancelled due to the pandemic.
Christmas in July Market was postponed in the wake of the Covid-19 situation. The Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council (QPRC) had initially planned to hold the event on July 11.
"Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation in NSW, QPRC has decided to postpone our Christmas in July Market," a QPRC spokesperson had said.
"The Market has been postponed until Sunday, September 19 and will be run as an exciting pre-Christmas event. We look forward to hosting the event later this year."
