Southampton’s Takedown Festival on hold for 2016

By Ben Tipple

“So it is with a little sadness, much fondness and a healthy dose of hope for the future that we must announce a hiatus for Takedown Festival,” festival organisers took to Facebook to announce. “It’s been no easy decision but with much of the team busy with projects and careers and the festival climate looking choppier than ever we feel that it’s the right decision at this time.”

“Thanks to all of the bands, staff and incredible volunteers we’ve worked with over the years. And thanks to all of the folks who have come to a Takedown since it’s humble beginnings back in Salisbury in 2008. We love you all!”

With that said, organisers have promised something a little different in 2016, hinting at a “slightly different format.”

More to come, we presume.
