It's just been announced that Pickering Folk Festival is to be rescheduled for Spring Bank holiday, May 23-25.

Current ticket holders can either get a full refund or be upgraded to VIP status (whatever that means) for the May festival.

Great news that the festival will be going ahead but I'm not sure what to do as the May date isn't as convenient for me as the cancelled festival, which was ideal as it was in the middle of the school summer holidays. I'll have to look at my diary and talk to mrsleveller.

I must say that the organisers have been fantastic in the way they have handled the situation, kept us all informed and managed to reschedule so quickly. Hats off to them.
