The festival, which featured acts including Queens of the Stone Age and Nick Cave, has been permanently cancelled just a month after its most recent event.
Mona Foma, one of Tasmania’s largest contemporary music and arts festivals, has come to an end after 16 years.
“Mona Foma took us around the world. But it ends here. Maybe the end started at Covid. Maybe it’s because the last festival was a poorly attended artistic triumph. But those aren’t the reasons I killed it,” Walsh said in a statement released on Friday afternoon.
