25/06/2010 - SITUATION UPDATE

We are very sorry to have had to take the decision to cancel Sellindge Music Festival. As announced at the time of the cancellation, this was solely due to Paypal changing their terms of business to the effect that they would not release the bulk of the ticket money to us until after the event.  This meant we were unable to pay the various additional costs associated with setting up the event. Sellindge Music Festival Limited has now ceased trading due to its inability to meet its debts as they fall due.  We are in the process of petitioning for the compulsory liquidation of the company and, upon such liquidation occurring (which is unlikely to be before the end of July), the official receiver will oversee the refund of ticket money, to the extent that such refunds are possible.  We are very sorry that ticketholders will have to wait until the official receiver is appointed before any refunds can be paid, but there are legal processes which we are obliged to follow.  We appreciate your patience during this difficult time.


04/06/2010 - SELLINDGE MUSIC FESTIVAL CANCELLED

Dear Friends, It is with great regret that we have to make the very hard decision to cancel this year's Sellindge Music Festival. 2010 has been an incredibly difficult year for events of this type and we at Sellindge hoped we had done enough to save our little corner of the Festival scene. Unfortunately due to various circumstances it seems we are unable to proceed. We are eternally grateful to all of you who have supported us over the last 11 Months.The reason for this is a change in policy at paypal which has resulted in a large amount of our funding being held until after the event. Funding that was essential to make this event run. Without that money we have no option but to cancel now to avoid disappointment on the day for you, our customers. We are currently looking at our accounts and putting in place mechanisms for refunding so please be patient and we will contact you as soon as possible with details of how we will proceed. Once again, thank you all for your support and belief in this event which we hope will return next year with support from other funding sources.

Many thanks, Sellindge Music Festival
