Cotton Clouds Festival in Saddleworth goes bust, owing thousands.

Date published: 27 September 2019


The company that organises The Cotton Clouds music festival, held in Saddleworth, has reportedly gone into liquidation.

The event was in it's third year and the last one was staged at Saddleworth Cricket Club, in Greenfield, on the 16th and 17th August. 

Thousands of music fans turned out to see Peter Hook and The Light and The Wailers headline over the two days. 

Reverand & The Makers,  Ash and Tim Burgess also performed there. 

There was rain on the Friday, which could have affected turnout, but Saturday was brighter. 

A company that supplied stages to the event, contacted The Oldham Chronicle, to say they're now owed £11,000 in unpaid debts. 

Binding Group Limited told us they've received a letter from liquidators, which contains a list of other companies also affected. 

The Oldham Chronicle contacted one of the directors of The Cotton Clouds Festival for a response, who simply replied; "No comment."
