Cyristal Palace Event has been CANCELLED tonight
TONIGHT the final Crystal Palace Event on:- Lord Street, Southport, has had to be cancelled due to the high winds. In a public statment Sefton Council has explained why they have taken this decision to cancel this highly anticipated show.
The press statement reads as follows:- "We can confirm after extensive discussions, tonight’s free Cristal Palace showcase will not go ahead due to the expected serious impact of Storm David. This decision has been taken not only due to the effects it will have on the crane & chandelier but more importantly to protect the safety of our audiences, staff, performers and volunteers on the ground. This is hugely disappointing for all involved. Performers have travelled from France with hundreds of people behind the scenes working incredibly hard for months to try and deliver this show for everybody to enjoy. We would like to thank them for their tireless efforts. We’d especially like to send a huge thank you to the dozens of local young dancers and brilliant volunteer performers who still had a chance to share their talent in front of their hometown yesterday evening.. Finally thank you to everyone who travelled into Southport to show their support for the event and especially those who showed such understanding and kindness to our staff for the safety decisions taken. Your support for Southport and its local businesses is invaluable. We are already working hard to bring some aspects of the show back later this year and further details will be provided in due course. In the meantime let’s take a look back at some of the special but brief moments from:- Friday night, with our talented local young dancers and Transe Express taking to the stage. You can see their commitment and creativity shining through despite the circumstances. Of course there’s even more to look forward to this year as part of the Southport 2026: Elegantly Eccentric programme. Next up is Big Top Festival, taking place on:- 2 May to 3 May 2026, bringing world class circus performers to Southport for the May Bank Holiday. This brand new two day celebration of circus, clowning, colour and creativity will be a celebration of the arts suitable for all ages and is once again completely free of charge. And yes, we will be checking the weather. We look forward to welcoming you back to Southport throughout the year!" COMMENTS (0)
