Clockenflap last took place in 2018. Its 2019 edition was cancelled due to protests in the city, and the festival has been on hiatus since due to the pandemic and ensuring COVID-19 restrictions. Its organisers confirmed its 2023 return last month.

Tickets that were purchased for the cancelled 2021 event and yet to be refunded will still be valid for the 2023 festival, and Clockenflap will be in touch with ticket holders soon regarding the arrangements for these tickets.
