THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
Ringmaster Festival has been cancelled.

A statement from Ringmaster Festival says:

"It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that Ringmaster Festival has to announce its closure for this year; due to an unforeseen financial situation.

As the festival entered the final stages it found itself in a financial position and as a result was no longer able to guarantee the appropriate monies owed to the bands and other parties at this stage. It is after careful consideration that Ringmaster has decided to unfortunately cancel this year’s event.

Ringmaster would like to thank everyone that has supported, been involved with and help spread the name over the past few months and would like to offer everyone their sincere apologies, in what has become a horrendous and saddening situation.

The festival would like to apologise for this unfortunate circumstance and like to notify that tickets will be refunded and for all ticket holders to contact their ticket provider for more information."

====================

Ringmaster Festival will be home to 6 big top tents, with the look and feel of a vintage circus (circa 1934) but with a focus very much on music.

The festival has moved to Hopton Court, at Cleobury Mortimer, in Worcestershire. The change in venue enables the addition to this year’s festival schedule of two nights of camping and more music from up and coming local acts on Friday 27th September (full details to be announced soon.)

Originally planned for one day, Ringmaster is now extended to include camping on both Friday 27th and Saturday 28th nights, with some bands now planned for the Friday evening jovialities!

Tickets

The early bird offer has ended. Tickets are priced at £39.50. Under-10's go free with an accompanying adult. Under-18's must be accompanied by an adult of 21-years of age, and any 21-year old can only be responsible for up to four under 18's.

Ringmaster will be donating a share of £5 per ticket to their two chosen charities, Barnardo’s & Longlands Care Farm. There will also be a focus on being 'green', with the festival using local food produce and only allowing a certain number of vehicles on site, to reduce long term damage to the fields.

More information will be here when available.
