It is with huge regret that the Waterlooville Music Festival Committee has decided that, in the current circumstances having regard to Government directives, and the safety of our volunteers, performers and the public, that the Waterlooville Music Festival 2020 will need to be postponed until next year.
Our plan is that, as far as possible, the 2020 programme will be transferred to the usual Festival dates for 2021, which are 12th June 2021 to 20th June 2021. We will be working on rebooking of performing artists, although some changes may prove necessary. This website will be regularly updated to indicate which performances are provisional for 2021, and which are confirmed.
If you have purchased tickets in advance, you have two options.
OPTION 1.
As you will know, Waterlooville Music Festival is a community activity organised entirely by unpaid volunteers, and has been providing a fantastic week of entertainment in the town for some 15 years now. Postponing the festival has some financial implications, and if you feel able to do so, adopting Option 1 will be very helpful to the festival in potentially saving us further unnecessary costs.
Under Option 1, the tickets you have purchased for 2020 will be fully valid for the equivalent evening concert in June 2021. This means the 2020 tickets that you have already purchased are secured ahead of anyone booking next year should concerts sell out, and you will still benefit from 2020 prices should the Festival Committee decide that any price increases are necessary next year.
To take up option 1, you need do nothing. If you change your mind, or if any changes in the 2021 programme are not to your liking, you can still obtain a full refund by following Option 2 at a later date.
OPTION 2.
Request a full refund by emailing us at wmf@stgeorgesnews.org
Please quote your Booking Reference number. If you want refunds on only some of the tickets purchased under the quoted Booking Reference number, please make clear which tickets you want refunded, and which ones you want to keep. If you have purchased a Passport, we can only refund the entire passport purchase, sorry we cannot split the passport so that you retain only some of the tickets it will contain.
Your refund will be made to the debit or credit card (or Paypal) that was used for the original purchase. For the small number of cash or cheque purchases, separate arrangements for refund will be made.
This option will be available until 2 weeks before the start of the 2021 festival.
Please allow 7 days for your request to be processed.
If you have any queries, please email us at wmf@stgeorgesnews.org
Once again, we are sorry for the disappointment this will cause, but are sure you will understand that this decision was unavoidable.
Our heartfelt thanks to the overwhelming majority who are taking Option 1 and retaining their tickets for next year. It helps us a lot and we really appreciate it.
