Music fans will not be able to see the likes of Suzi Quatro or Dr and The Medics storm the stage at Worksop Town Football Club in the two-day extravaganza, which was scheduled to take place between 14th and 15th June.

Bassetlaw Council's lack of consent to the event means festival-goers will have to seek their music fix elsewhere this summer.

Tickets for the event went on sale last year after entertainment company 1861 Leisure announced the impressive festival line-up in October last year, featuring an array of blues, indie, pop and rock acts.

But with concerns raised by Worksop Town Football Club over the potential effects a festival would have on the football pitch, Bassetlaw Council – which owns the ground – has now pulled out of the deal.

However, the council has been keen to reassure people who had bought tickets – £26 – £39.50 – for the concert would have their money fully refunded in due course.
