An announcement from organisers on Thursday said: "We hope everyone is doing as well as humanly possible right now, sending so much love and solidarity to everyone, wherever in the world you may be. 

“We are deeply saddened to make the announcement that we are no longer proceeding with Boomtown 2020, and the next chapter will take place on 11-15th August 2021,"

Ticket holders have been given the option to refund their 2020 ticket or hold on to it and allow it to roll over to the 2021 festival should it go ahead.
