THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
Limetree Festival has been cancelled.

A statement from organisers says:
"It Is with a very heavy heart that we have to inform you that we have not been granted the Entertainment License for the new site and we are therefore faced with no other option but to cancel this year's limetree festival.

Following the need to find a new venue for 2012 we were dependent upon the landowners judgement that the site they proposed was indeed suitable for our festival. We were therefore shocked by the vociferous opposition from some people to our lovely Limetree taking place. We worked incredibly hard to defend our license application but to no avail and we are absolutely devastated that the license was refused.

This is not the end! We will be back with the Limetree we all know and Love in 2013! Love and thanks! Stay with us people!
xxxxx

Please bear with us in what is obviously a difficult time but we will be in touch with everyone as soon as possible
!"
