Woo-hoo! The Lost Weekend might be back on… Lost Vagueness have just issued this statement:
There have been rumours of cancellation circulating for the last
day or so after the festival’s financial backers, AEGLive, dropped
the bombshell that they were pulling out. The exit of AEGLive was
confirmed at 11am yesterday (Wednesday 7 June) and cancellation
was formally announced yesterday afternoon, with a cancellation
notice appearing on the event website. However, since that time a
new potential backer has come forward and the festival organisers
are now deep in discussion about the possibility of rescuing the
event. A decision one way or the other is expected to be announced
at 6pm tonight.
Fingers crossed…
