Record Store Day confirm 2021 event date

After having to adapt and host Record Store Day 2020 across three 'Drop Dates' in August, September and October, Record Store Day organisers have confirmed that next year's event is aiming to revert back to a one-day event.

Organisers announced this afternoon (1 December) that they're aiming to host Record Store Day on 12 June 2021. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, Record Store Day traditionally took place each year in April.
