Grand Prix Pays After Concert Lawsuit | Perth News
Description
The Australian Grand Prix is on the hook for over $2.8 million after a court rejected their appeal — the same event that canceled Robbie Williams’ highly anticipated Melbourne concert in 2020. The concert promoters won their case, claiming the race organizers misled them about COVID-19 advice from the chief health officer, which could have influenced their decision to proceed. Despite taking the case to the Court of Appeal, the Grand Prix lost — meaning they’re now officially liable for the damages. Meanwhile, Robbie Williams is set to headline the Melbourne Cup later this year, bringing his Aussie return full circle.
