After five year Takedown Festival has been cancelled.

Organisers have made a statement on the event's website, (here), saying, "So it is with a little sadness, much fondness and a healthy dose of hope for the future that we must announce a hiatus for Takedown Festival. It's been no easy decision but with much of the team busy with projects and careers and the festival climate looking choppier than ever we feel that it's the right decision at this time.

"Thanks to all of the bands, staff and incredible volunteers we've worked with over the years. And thanks to all of the folks who have come to a Takedown since it's humble beginnings back in Salisbury in 2008. We love you all!

"We still have a little something in the pipeline for 2016 in a slightly different format so keep an eye out for that, in the meantime, be seeing you."

Takedown Festival was set to return on Saturday 5th March 2016 to Southampton University for a sixth year.
