Newcastle music festival postponed due to 'oversaturated market,' organisers say
A music festival in Newcastle will not be going ahead this year, organisers have confirmed, just two months before it was due to be held.
Newcastle City Council then imposed new restrictions which organisers had described as "challenging".The three-day festival was due to happen from June 3 to 5, but will now take place in May 2023.more than 90 complaints were made about the "horrendous" disturbance caused to neighbours in Jesmond by the four-day event last September.
Councillors also backed a crucial restriction on noise, limiting it to no more than five decibels above existing background levels at the nearest homes - something Urban Green's barrister had claimed would prevent any concerts going ahead. "With an oversaturated market, the ongoing economic crisis and rising costs, 2022 is the wrong year for the festival to expand further."
