North Cornwall Music Festival, Porthilly Spirit Gets Cancelled
Lack of a license led organisers to pull the plug on this year's event.
A brand new music festival with a major line up including Tom Odell and Gilles Peterson has not been able to secure a license to go ahead this year. The news of the Porthilly Spirit festival cancellation will come as a massive blow to those who have already purchased tickets and made plans to attend.
From the organiser's social media page
We are very shocked and sad to share the news that we have not been granted the license to put the festival on. Despite months of work with the local authorities (including approval from every single statutory authority) the license was denied last night.
However, we aren’t giving up and are exploring options for the event to go ahead, perhaps with some small changes. We will reach a final decision on Monday 13th May.
In the event of the festival being cancelled, our ticket platform, Ticket Sellers, will be in touch with every ticket purchaser within 24 hours to confirm bank details. On making contact, they will process the refund immediately and it will take 5-7 days to arrive. Ticket Sellers policy is to refund the face value of the ticket but we, the festival, will refund the booking fee so no one is out of pocket.
If you have any questions please get in touch hello@porthillyspirit.com.
We are passionate and committed to bringing you the very best weekend and thank you for your support and patience.
