Progress being made on festival refunds

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

The organiser of the cancelled Isle of Man Festival says nearly everyone will have their money back over the next few days.

The music event was supposed to have taken place at Noble's Park last Saturday but was scrapped after poor ticket sales.

A capacity of 15,000 people had originally been predicted but this was later scaled down to half that.

Only 2,000 people ultimately bought a ticket to the MTV-backed festival.

However, Chris Heyes says most of these people will be getting their refund shortly
