One Of These Days happening on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th December at Blackpool's Winter Gardens was set to be a collaboration of various events including Field Day, Oya Festival, Melt!, Kendal Calling, Glastonbury Dance Village, Electric Elephant, End of The Road, DFA Records, SWN Festival, The Warehouse Project, Now Wave, Free Rotation, Eden Sessions, Fiber Festival, and Shambala.

The two day one-off event hoped to bring the look, feel, ethos and style of each event to the many rooms of the multi-venue indoor complex in the shadow of the Blackpool Tower. In total over 150 acts would have performed over the two days with interactive art, film installations and a winter market also planned.

Richard Cassar of One of These Days said, "It is with sadness that we will not be proceeding with One of These Days as planned on Dec 8/9th 2012. There was an unexpected change in the structure of the business which has left us financially unable to deliver the event to the level we wanted for 2012.

All the guest festival curators have been very supportive and there is still a lot of goodwill for the event to happen so we still trying to work out a solution for 2013.

All ticket buyers can get full face value refund from point of purchase."
