“We have not recovered from our postponed event, and it is no longer financially viable to push on,” the statement added.

“We would like to thank those of you who have stuck by us and those who took the opportunity to purchase tickets on our second attempt. Ranch-Fest provided an unbelievable lineup for 2024, and we will be back.”

“Thank you to the artists, fans, organisers, and all those involved for the gallant efforts made to try to make this happen,” the statement concluded.
