Nottinghamshire music festival going ahead after location mix-up

The organiser of a Nottinghamshire music festival has spoken of his frustration after authorities suggested that his event was fake and that the selling of tickets for it was a scam. The 'Low Down Deep' outdoor event is taking place over the August bank holiday weekend at the Redhill Marina event field.

The site is located near the Ratcliffe on Soar Power Station, which was mentioned in the festival's original marketing material. But Stuart Heather, 46, from promotion company Submerged & BassLayerz, said he could now "kick himself" for mentioning it.

Uniper, the energy company which runs the Ratcliffe on Soar Power Station, issued a warning saying that it had been made aware of social media posts suggesting that music festivals were being held on site on August 28 and August 29. The August 29 event advertises itself as an under-18s event featuring live DJs and funfair rides.
