Big Blue Festival cancelled for 2010

The Big Blue Festival due to be held on the Isle of Wight between 17-19th September 2010 has been cancelled due to the potential threatened injunctive relief being sought by the owners of White Air Festivals Ltd. With only 11 weeks to the start of Big Blue, the decision to cancel now, has been taken to limit any further risk or disruption to the event, its suppliers and those who were planning to attend the event.

All ticket sales will be refunded with immediate effect.

We are really grateful for the support we've had from a wide range of participants, suppliers and public, which gives us great confidence in the principle of running an extreme sports festival on the Isle of Wight in the future. The Isle of Wight provides a naturally stunning setting for an Extreme Sports event, that can not only bring top international sportsmen in their field to compete, but also provide everyone the opportunity to get involved and try something new themselves.

Big Blue Festivals were looking to bring a fresh approach to the notion of an extreme sports festival. They are separate to the previous company that ran an extreme sports event on the Isle of Wight.
