Preston Live final line up revealed after two days cancelled

Organisers of a previous three day music festival in Preston have announced the final line up for the one day.

Earlier this month we reported that Preston Live music festival will not go ahead on Friday and Sunday at Showfield, Preston from July 25 to Sunday, July 27.

The popular festival which debuted last year with a headline performance by Jess Glynne, will now only proceed on the Saturday.

The cancellation is due to ticket sales not reaching the required level, rendering the event unviable.

This announcement follows a similar situation days earlier with the iMEP Music Festival in Accrington, which was also cancelled due to poor ticket sales.

A statement on the Preston Live Facebook page stated that Saturday’s event is “100% going ahead as planned and promises to be an incredible day of live music, food and entertainment”.

A spokesperson for the music festival said: “Not long to go until Preston Live!! Can’t wait to see you guys on Saturday 26th July.”
