THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

EjectorSeat Arts has been cancelled.

A statement from EjectorSeat Arts says:

"I am really sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news, and it is with a heavy heart that I am writing to you. Sadly we have to cancel this year's festival due to us being unsuccessful with a major funding application. Despite the various income sources that we've developed with food vendors, contractors, in-kind donations and sponsors the costs of the festival are too high for us to put it on without the help of funding.

It has been great to hear from many of you about the value you place on the festival, and how much it means to the local community, and we look forward with a positive light and hope that we are able to deliver another great festival for next year."
