Sad news for music lovers: We Are One Festival in Cardiff has been called off just weeks before its debut. Set to rock Tramshed on 31st January and 1st February with 20 bands like Cassyette, Vukovi, and more, it’s now facing an unfortunate cancellation. This sudden change is due to a last-minute “investment withdrawal,” leaving the organisers no room to manoeuvre despite seeking help from Cardiff Council and the Welsh Government.
Organisers shared their disappointment, explaining how they anticipated some initial losses but planned on building a fantastic annual event for the South Wales community. The festival aimed to showcase alternative rock talent from across the UK and was a project close to their hearts. They explored all possible ways to save the festival after the unforeseen investor pull-out, but time was too tight to secure any alternative funding.
The good news? If you bought tickets, rest easy knowing you’ll get a full refund. Organisers have already begun the refund process, so you shouldn’t have to do a thing.
A huge thanks to everyone who supported the festival’s vision. The organisers have expressed deep gratitude to all the ticket holders and supporters who were looking forward to the event. Fingers crossed that this dream gets revived in the future!
Keep your eyes peeled for updates and let’s hope this isn’t the last we hear of We Are One. 🎶💔
