Kubix Festival in Sunderland cancelled
The Kubix Festival in Sunderland has been cancelled, organisers have announced.
The decision was confirmed on Saturday following increasing speculation about whether the pop and dance music event would go ahead this year.
In a statement on social media, organisers said: "We're heartbroken to confirm that Kubix Festival will not go ahead this year."
The statement added the decision has "not been taken lightly" but it was "impossible to continue."
The event, which hosts some of the North East's most prominent musicians, as well as artists from further afield, had been due to take place in Herrington Country Park on Saturday 12 July this year.
Shaggy, who performs hits such as 'Boombastic' was due to headline, while Basshunter, Blue and Lasgo were among others set to play.
Organisers said they were "incredibly sorry" to fans looking forward to the event.
