A festival has been cancelled after attempts to save it did not succeed, organisers say. Northern Kin was due to take place at Thornley Hall farm, in County Durham, at the beginning of August. Organiser Wannasee Ltd had previously said discussions were under way to preserve the festival after 10 of its other events, including Stone Valley North and Kubix, were cancelled at the end of May. But a social media post on Wednesday confirmed Northern Kin would not be going ahead, despite the team having worked "around the clock" to find a way to run it.
