RockNess 2015 cancelled
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 21 January 2015
The Loch Ness-based RockNess festival has been cancelled for a second year running, according to the BBC.
Last year’s festival was also called off, with organisers blaming the World Cup and Commonwealth Games, though they promised to return in 2015. But that is definitely not happening organisers reportedly confirmed yesterday.
Specifics behind that decision have not yet been revealed, though the Aberdeen Press And Journal said it believes organisers “have been struggling to attract the numbers needed to help it compete financially against other major events”
The news follows the recent announcements that Sonisphere UK and the Barcelona Metal Festival will not take place this year.
