FLETCHERS FARM FESTIVAL
Due to the continued uncertainty surrounding the loosening of COVID-19 restrictions anytime in the near future, we have taken the very difficult decision to cancel Fletchers Farm Festival 2021 and offer everyone a ticket refund or the opportunity to roll their tickets over to 2022 and take advantage of a super early bird ticket price.
We have worked behind the scenes since the beginning of the pandemic to adapt, postpone and reschedule last years festival but unfortunately, the likelihood of continued social distancing into this Summer means that, with any certainty, we are unable to provide the event that you, and we, all want and deserve after such awful times.
We can confidently say that when the time is right for everyone to get together and celebrate, here at Fletchers Farm Fest, we will bring you a full music festival to enjoy, feel safe at and to remember!
Take care, stay safe and we so look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday July 16th 2022 for what will be a much bigger and better event with some special surprises to be announced very soon!
No other early bird tickets will be available for the 2022 event and all refunds must be requested via Eventbrite please, thank you.
Thanks for sticking with us if you choose to roll your ticket over and we hope to see you at the festival in 2022.
