Organisers of East Lothian music festival told to apologise for 'silly' social media comments

Organisers of an East Lothian music festival which had to be halted because it did not have the right licence have been asked to apologise for 'misinformation' shared on social media.

Cockenzie House and Gardens applied for a change to its current Public Entertainment Licence after it was revealed it did not cover its outdoor space where the EH32 Music Festival was due to take place.

The summer festival, due to start last month, had been held since 2021 but the lack of licence was only discovered this year, leading the organisers to cancel weekend concerts until the change could be made.
