Celtic Blue Rock Festival - CANCELLED 2010

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
Celtic Blue Rock Community Arts Festival has been cancelled. The Voluntary Management Committee of the Celtic Blue Rock Festival on Wednesday 23rd June had to make the difficult decision to cancel this year's event.

Those who bought a ticket for Celtic Blue Rock 2010, and have not yet been refunded, have are offered a Two-for-one - if you have a Celtic Blue Rock 2010 full weekend ticket, you can exchange it for 2 full weekend tickets for the 2012 festival.

The festival organisers have found themselves in the unenviable position of having their licenses revoked and whilst they were planning to appeal against this decision, unfortunately, the dates we were given for the appeal hearing were too close to the festival itself and therefore left little room for the planning and marketing of the event.

This is only a year off, and the festival will be back next year.

Blue Rock 2010 tickets are still worth something, with a two-for-one offer for future events, they are asking all those people who want a refund to send their tickets back to them along with the claim form which can be downloaded here
