Isle of Man Bay Festival cancelled

The Isle of Man Bay Festival has been cancelled due to poor ticket sales, organisers have confirmed.

The festival was due to be held in Douglas from 17 to 19 June, at a cost of £1.5m, following the success of last year’s event.

Rapper Tinie Tempah had been due to headline the event. Pop group Westlife were also due to perform.

The organisers apologised to people who bought tickets and said they would receive refunds.

In a statement, they said: “Although we have explored every avenue to keep the festival alive we cannot see a sustainable way to make it commercially viable due to poor ticket sales.”

They said it was a “sad decision” but hoped the event would return in 2012.

The spokesperson said the Elton John concert, on 16 June, was not part of the festival.
