Organisers have had to cancel Standon Calling which was taking place in the grounds of a 16th Century Hertfordshire manor house this weekend due to heavy flooding in tonight's bad weather.
A statement from organisers released on Sunday evening said:
"Unfortunately due to flooding we will no longer be able to proceed with the Sunday evening of the festival.
If you can safely leave the site this evening please do so as soon as possible. We are working on getting everyone off site as safely and quickly as possible. Please bear with us as we are experiencing considerable delays exiting the car parks.. Please do not attempt to drive if you are intoxicated.
If you are unable to leave site safely (for example if you are intoxicated, your lift cannot get to you or you can’t get to your public transport this evening) please head to the Campsite Office in the Village Green (or reception if you are in boutique or Lavish Lands) where we will be providing details on the provisions we will be making for you. In the meantime please stay as warm, hydrated and dry as possible.
We will post the latest updates straight to the Campsite Office as well as on twitter and our web page."
Those who need to come back on site for their belongings tomorrow can do so (ideally before midday) but are reminded to please bring their wristband!
update on Monday 26th July 2021:
Standon Calling have issued a post-festival statement here
Most of this is just self-effusive waffle, attempting to distract from the massive failure. The pertinent paragraph regarding possible refunds reads:
"We understand this is particularly disappointing for those of you who had Sunday Day tickets and arrived at the same time as the storm. Please contact us at info@standon-calling.com with the subject line “SC21 Sunday Ticket Options” + the lead ticket holders full name’ if you wish to understand your ticket options. Please also provide the lead bookers email address and the ticket agent you purchased from."
Full review to follow.
