Takedown Festival have announce that it’s 2024 Festival, due to take place in Portsmouth on 13th and 14th April has been postponed until 2025, with organisers offering ticketholders a refund from point of purchase.
In a statement, the organisers explained that building works at the Portsmouth Guildhall would be extended across the festival dates, resulting in the loss of two key areas of the festival site and a reduction in capacity that made it no longer viable for this year. They also pointed to challenging trading conditions as another factor.
Organisers also stated that: “Takedown Festival will return in 2025 with, it is hoped, much of this year’s line-up carried forward. We are currently in talks with all of the bands to see if this is possible for them. Until we are in a position to confirm any details we have decided that all ticket holders will be refunded by their point of purchase.
!We sincerely apologise for any disappointment or inconvenience caused and thank you in advance for your continued support of Takedown Festival into 2025.!
