Blisscamp 2018 “shall not be going ahead”

The intimate event didn’t sell well enough in its new form.

Blisscamp – the intimate new event from the folks behind Blissfields – has been cancelled.

The line-up was set to host sets from Baxter Dury, Mr Jukes, Gold Panda, Slamboree, Dub Pistols, A Skillz, Beans On Toast, Koyo, Lion, Pink Kink and more in Hampshire this July.

“In 2018 we wanted to strip it all back, and reinvent what we were doing in a new, unfiltered way. While everybody else was going big, in effect we were going “home”,” the organisers explain.

“Sadly though it seems that’s not what the public wanted – at least not enough for us to go ahead with Blisscamp this year. As not enough tickets are sold for us to start finalising and building the festival, we have had to make the call to cancel.

“It was not a decision we made lightly, and it’s one that fills our hearts with such sadness we can barely begin to even put a pinch of how we feel into this message.”
