Promoter's payout ruling upheld over cancellation of Robbie Williams grand prix concert

In short:

Australian Grand Prix organisers have failed to overturn a $2.84 million compensation order to a music promoter over a COVID-era Robbie Williams concert cancellation.

The concert was due to go ahead as part of the 2020 F1 Grand Prix in Melbourne but was cancelled due to COVID on the eve of the event.

Live music promoter World Touring Melbourne successfully sued Grand Prix organisers in 2024 over a breach of contract.
