Soundon Festival, the two-day dance event timed to coincide with 30 years of House/Dance music taking place at Essex Sports Village, in South Ockendon has announced that it is moving from 30th April and 1st May, and will now take place on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th August 2016, with all current ticket holders will be refunded in full, before being issued with a free weekend ticket for the new dates.
Festival Director, Danny Swallow explained the change of dates, saying "Unfortunately, we realised that there was still work to be done to make the site 100% festival ready, so made the decision to move Soundon Festival. This wasn’t an easy decision, but we took it in order to give us the time to bring everything up to the high standards we‘ve set ourselves. We will look after current ticket holders, refunding them in full and giving them free tickets for the new dates, but our number one priority is to ensure that all Soundon Festival visitors can enjoy the quality music and entertainment we have planned, in a safe and accessible environment.”
Many of the acts booked for the original dates have moved their plans around to still appear at the event, but there will be line-up changes which will be announced in due course, Danny Swallow continued, "Many of the artists booked for our original dates have moved their diaries around to stick with us, so we'd like to say a big thank you to them. However, we won't be slowing down and plan to use the next few months to ensure that Soundon Festival boasts the biggest and best lineup of international talent available. We want this to be the perfect summer festival and are working flat out to make it happen."
An announcement on lineups, stages and ticketing will follow shortly.
All current ticket holders will be refunded in full, before being issued with a free weekend ticket for the new dates.
The early bird offer has ended. Tickets are priced at £90 for weekend, or £50 for a day ticket.
