Live Nation and The Royal Parks have unfortunately had to cancel tomorrow’s fabulous Hit Factory Live show at Hyde Park. The gig, which was to showcase performances by Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan, Steps, Rick Astley, Bananarama and more, was due to take place between the festival dates of Wireless (last weekend) and Hard Rock Calling (this weekend) but thanks to the amount of rain that has fallen in the last few days, the grounds have been deemed unfit to host the thousands of fans and staff who would be attending the show.
The official statement read:
Live Nation and The Royal Parks have today announced that they have been forced to cancel The Hit Factory Live concert tomorrow (Wednesday 11 July).
Following the severe and unprecedented weather conditions across the country, the site was declared unfit this morning to host the concert. The decision was made following full consultation with all of the relevant authorities and the safety advisory group. The safety of our customers, performers and production crew is of utmost importance and the decision was made unanimously. The potential risk to staff and music fans was too great for the event to go ahead.
Live Nation and The Royal Parks sincerely regret the disappointment caused by this cancellation.
