It's a grim day for the music festival in Ireland. Kaleidoscope Festival, whose line up included Gavin James, Hudson Taylor, Aimée, Luz Corrigan, and Hamsandwich, has added its name to the growing list of festivals that have taken a rain check on summer 2020.

This said, it's for the safety of everyone that these events are postponed and cancelled. Festival organisers are doing their part to flatten the curve of the Coronavirus, and that is all we can ask or expect at this time.

In a statement, Kaleidoscope Festival said:

"Rest assured we will be back next year and can’t wait to welcome you all back in June 2021. We will return better than ever, with an amazing festival and line-up with very special treats and new activities to enthral and entertain all. We can’t wait to see you all then. Thank you, as ever, for your continued support and also thanks to Russborough House, our partners, artists, crew and all those involved working on our festival.

"Your ticket refund is available from the original point of purchase, or if you prefer, you can retain your ticket and carry it over to next year. If you booked online or by phone, Ticketmaster will process your refund directly back to you via your original payment method, which will take up to seven working days to process".
