Burnham-On-Sea’s first free outdoor music event of the year, which was due to be held on Sunday (May 11th), was cancelled due to bad weather.
Party In The Park was due to take place in the Manor Gardens from 12.30pm featuring several popular local groups including Rude Awakening (pictured above).
However, organisers took the decision to call-off the event shortly after 9am after seeing the poor forecast for the afternoon.
Organiser Mike Murphy from CADS (the Burnham and Highbridge Cultural Arts and Development Society) told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “The weather was unfortunately very stormy with high winds and we made the decision to cancel it.”
“It’s always a difficult call to make, but we have to keep safety in mind as the highest priority.”
