A statement from the Rock the Park organisers said: "We are extremely disappointed to announce that we have no option other than to regretfully postpone this year’s event, scheduled for 5th to 7th August 2022, to new dates of May 18th to 22nd 2023.

"We have missed two years of festivals due to the pandemic and have been striving to bring all the elements together to stage this year’s festival.

"We were confident that we were on course for a fabulous weekend and are gutted, for everyone who had bought tickets, our artists and suppliers, that we have been thwarted, by local bureaucracy, at this late stage.

"The festival team that has come together in recent months would have given us a great festival and alongside the festival professionals supporting us we are 100% committed to rescheduling Rock The Park for May 2023.

"We encourage anyone who has bought a ticket to hang on to it for the rescheduled show and your support will be rewarded.

"For any ticketholders who do not want to do that, we are offering a full refund. We ask for your patience while we put logistics in place to enable that.

"We will put a link on our website by the end of the month to secure a refund, which will remain live until the end of September.

"We are devastated that we won’t be joining everyone for the party that we were all so desperate to be a part of. We are so sorry to have let you down for 2022, but please, be assured we will return with the best Rock The Park ever."
