R.I.P The Big Chill
The Big Chill promoters have announced that Festival Republic are not considering bringing back the festival which last took place at Eastnor Castle Deer Park in Herefordshire back in 2011.
The festival was cancelled in 2012 due to a clash with the Olympics and in 2013 did not return due to talk of economic struggle. Now, David Littlewood, the general manager at Eastnor Castle believes that the festival will never return and that Festival Republic have no intention of ever bringing it back.
Back in 1994 The Big Chill started as a string of parties in Islington but soon developed into an outdoor festival moving from Wales to Norfolk to Dorset and finally its final resting ground in Herefordshire. With great line-ups in the past including Kanye West, The Chemical Brothers, Massive Attack and Basement Jaxx among others it seems a shame to lose such a great festival.
