Bluedot festival issues urgent warning to Sunday day ticket holders following 'unprecedented' rainfall
manchestereveningnews.co.ukOrganisers of the Bluedot music and science festival have told Sunday day ticket holders not to travel to the event following heavy rain.
The festival, held annually at Jodrell Bank observatory in Cheshire, started on Thursday (July 20). Over the past few days bosses say they have dealt with ‘unprecedented’ precipitation.
Now, they say, some areas of the site are ‘impassable’, prompting the cancellation of Sunday day ticket holders.
