Very reluctantly and with great sadness we have had to take the difficult decision to cancel this year's Festival 2024. The reason for this is that the Arts Council England have refused funding after we made four strong applications all of which were knocked back. We believe we had planned another great Festival with a fantastic line up and we sincerely apologise to everyone concerned - artists and audiences alike. All the booked artists have been contacted and any ticket bookings will be refunded. We will be working hard to get another festival up and running as soon as we can.
