The Quart Festival Is Cancelled Due To Low Ticket Sales

The Quart Festival due to be held in Norway next month has been cancelled this year, say organisers.

The three-day event, which would have been the 17th in the history of the festival, should have taken place between July 2nd-5th in Kristiansand.

Organisers have claimed "ticket sales being weaker than expected and budgetary concerns" as the reason for the cancellation.

Bands that were booked to perform at Quart Festival included Death Cab For Cutie, Dizzee Rascal and The Enemy.
