It’s been a difficult time for us all lately and we’d like to thank you for your patience and support while we have evaluated the situation and explored every option over the last few months.

We have held off cancelling Picnic and Pop for as long as possible in the hope that some miracle would happen but unfortunately it is now time to accept that it is no longer possible for this year’s event to go ahead as planned. So much time and effort has been put in over the last 9 months to make this year even better than before and this decision has not been taken lightly. We are beyond disappointed and really did try to hang on in there and make this happen. We did consider moving the event to a date in September and had booked Manor Park for the 5th but having discussed it at length between ourselves and our partners we felt the risk was just too great for a small independent festival to take under such uncertain circumstances.

We would like to thank those sponsors, artists and suppliers who, although themselves are greatly affected by the current situation, have already agreed to support us. We now ask for your support too as we move to protect the future of this local festival and ensure that it can continue in the community of Aldershot for many years to come.

Those who have bought tickets, they will automatically be valid for next years festival on Saturday 31st July 2021 and we hope that you will keep hold off them for then. However, for anyone not able to make the new date, you can request a refund using the form below.

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for your support and hope that you all stay safe. We can’t wait to be back with you on Manor Park next year. We’re just devastated not to be back this year.

Take care and Stay safe

Refunds

If you wish to keep your ticket and attend next year, then no action is required on your part. Your ticket(s) will be valid for the new date of Saturday 31st July 2021. We thank you for your support.

If you would like a refund, your ticket will be refunded to the card you originally used to pay within 15 days of the refund application form closing on the 1st July 2020 deadline. We will be refunding the entirety of your ticket minus the booking fee (which is retained by the ticketing company). We will try our best to provide you with your refund as soon as possible, and if we are able to do so sooner than these time frames we will, but there are several factors outside of our control which is why we have set these deadlines.
