Decisions are starting to be made on spring events in the West Midlands and this morning we've heard this year's Upton Folk Festival has been cancelled.
The organisers said the decision to call off the May Bank holiday event was made for the safety of everyone involved, with coronavirus still with us.
Earlier this week it was announced that the Bewdley Carnival would not go ahead as organisers said the current lockdown made it impossible to have meetings and plan ahead for the summer event.

The Vice Chancellor of the University of Worcester is calling on the government to give students a £5,000 credit on their student loans.
Professor David Green said they deserved it because of the difficulties they've faced during the pandemic.
Professor Green said: "Right now students across the country are at home, they are having to study, sometimes in extremely difficult circumstances and they're isolated.
"People aren't paying enough attention to their welfare at national level."

More people have been sharing photos of food parcels sent to feed their children for the week, after the issue came to light yesterday.
A single mum from Worcester, who didn't want to be named, sent us this picture of the pack she was sent for three of her children for a week.
She said one of her children is autistic and is "very, very fussy" so they've struggled to get him to eat it.
And she complained families had not been asked about their dietary requirements.
For contrast, this photo was shared by an independent supplier, JP Catering, based in Weobley, Herefordshire and shows the parcel it provides for just one child for a week.
And it said: "I'm open for suggestions if anyone would like to it's pretty tough pleasing easy individual child so I do try but I'm more than happy for parents to give me ideas."
BBC Weather
We're forecasting some light rain today, but it should be a bit warmer than yesterday with temperatures up to 8C (46F).
Tomorrow we're expecting more of the same, but Friday should be drier.
