Fflam not going ahead next weekend

Fflam - Wales's new contemporary music festival, due to happen at Swansea's Singleton Park over the weekend of Friday 13th until Sunday 15th July - will not being going ahead on those dates.

A statement has just been issued by the organisers Straight Music, which reads as follows:-

Due to consistently bad weather conditions over the last few weeks, we regret that the Fflam Festival has been postponed. This has been a hard, but well considered decision and we believe it is the best one for all concerned. Due to the bad weather, we have been delayed in putting the infrastructure in place and it is a big concern that the weather conditions will hugely dampen the experience we want to give all our festival goers. Postponing the festival will mean that we can give everyone the Fflam festival experience they deserve, bands, organisers and festivalgoers alike. We expect the new date to be at the end of the summer and are doing all we can do get everything reorganised as quickly and efficiently as possible so that we can confirm the date within the week. Full refunds will shortly be available from point of purchase for anyone who wishes to take this option, but we would like to reassure everyone that the festival WILL take place and encourage them to await further information on the new date before making this decision

Fflam was expected to have acts including Friday headliner Keane, Saturday headliner Placebo and Sunday headliner Manic Street Preachers, as well as Levellers, The Feeling, The Ordinary Boys, The Stranglers and more - click here for all the details to date.
