And unfortunately, it's bad news.

Due to the timing in which the next stage of the government’s roadmap commences, Aylesbury Town Council has made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Aylesbury on Sea which was due to take place in Vale Park on Sunday 4 July.

They said: 'The decision to cancel events or give them the green light at the moment is an extremely difficult decision to make as the Town Council’s priority is the safety of its residents.'

This decision will be announced by the Town Council in early June.

This delay will ensure Aylesbury Town Council can make the right decision for all involved, including performers, suppliers, the hospitality team, volunteers, staff and local residents as everyone’s safety is the Town Council’s primary focus.
