Alternative dance festival the Dedbeat Weekender has postponed their November event to the Spring. Deadbeat 3 was scheduled to take place on 8-10 Nov at Pontin's Holiday Village in Norfolk, but it will now take place between 28 Feb - 2 Mar. Organisers claim that, although tickets sales were going well, it was proving impractical to stage the event this close to Christmas. "We sincerely apologise for the disruption that this may cause, especially to those who booked up early," the event's organisers told reporters. "However if we pursue the original date it could result in problems that would mean the end of Dedbeat."
The venue and line-ups for the event (which included Super Collider and Blackalicious) are expected to be unchanged, and tickets already purchased will be valid for the new dates. Organisers have also promised to cover any charges ticket holders incur if they have to cancel travel arrangements. More info at www.dedbeat.net
