RockNess music festival cancelled for 2014

RockNess festival has been cancelled this year.

RockNess organisers confirmed the three-day annual music event – which usually takes place in June – will take a break in 2014, according to a statement on its official Facebook page.

“We’d like to thank you for your support over the last eight years,” the Facebook post reads.

“Due to the addition of a number of events alongside the World Cup and the Commonwealth Games we’ve decided to take a year off.

“We’re using this break to make the event bigger and better than ever in 2015 so have an amazing summer and see you back at the Loch next year!”

Rockness 2013 was headlined by Example, Plan B and Basement Jaxx, with further performances from Madness, Bombay Bicycle Club and The Vaccines.
