The full statements reads,
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce THIS THAT Sandstone Point (QLD) and Newcastle (NSW) festivals will no longer be going ahead.
This difficult decision was reached due to the challenging economic conditions we have been working within this past year, and the many factors that have been impacted by this. It has left us feeling that the THIS THAT experience you have come to know and love, and that we pride ourselves on offering, would only be dampened if we were to forge ahead.
