\n In May it was announced that the UK Proms in the Park 2025 tour would arrive in Falmouth for two nights of music at Pendennis Castle<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

\n The weekend was to feature the UK Dance Anthems Orchestra on Friday, September 5, hosted by Radio 1 DJ Arielle Free, and the UK Proms Orchestra on Saturday, September 6, hosted by Rob Rinder.\n<\/p>\n

\n However, Pendennis Castle posted on its Facebook page today (Saturday) to say that event\u00a0had been cancelled.\n<\/p>\n

\n It said: \u201cWe have been made aware that the promoter for the Night at the Proms has gone into liquidation, and unfortunately the event has been cancelled.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cPendennis is only the third party hire, and sadly we have very little information other than to signpost you to the UK Proms.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cIf we receive any further updates, we will keep you informed.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n There are also many unhappy people on Facebook who have bought tickets and are unsure whether they will be getting a refund.\n<\/p>\n

\n One person, who booked through the Hall for Cornwall<\/a> website, said she had received an email saying the event had been cancelled, adding that a second email followed to say a refund had been processed.\n<\/p>\n

\n However, others who bought tickets through different methods\u00a0said they had not been notified of any event cancellation.\n<\/p>\n

\n The event\u2019s website, ukproms.com, has been taken down and the event Facebook page, UK Proms in the Park, no longer exists.\n<\/p>\n

\n The company behind the event is UKAC Productions, but their website, ukacgroup.com, also no longer exists.\n<\/p>\n

\n Companies House lists the directors for UKAC Productions Limited as being Justin Klekot and Peter Metcalfe, both who currently show up as still active.\n<\/p>\n

\n They were both quoted in May\u2019s event press release as being UK Proms directors and co-founders.\n<\/p>\n

\n However, a third director, Holly Teague, who was quoted in the press release as being UK Proms artistic director and co-founder, resigned on July 23 this year.\n<\/p>\n

\n The Packet has attempted to contact the organisers via Eventbrite, where the event remains listed but \u2018sold out\u2019.\n<\/p>\n

\n We have also attempted to contact the PR company publicising the event for further clarification on the situation and advice on refunds should the events be cancelled.\n<\/p>\n

\n A voicemail has been left on the phone number provided, but the email address comes back undeliverable.\n<\/p>\n

\n U\ufeffKAC Productions is described on Eventbrite as a \u201cUK based production company who primarily specialise in all genres of orchestral music and concerts at iconic historical locations.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n It goes on to add: \u201cThe Production company are the organisers of the UK Proms Tour and the owners of the UK Proms Orchestra, The Dance Anthems Orchestra, The Horror Ensemble and 3 Tenors.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In May it was announced that the UK Proms in the Park 2025 tour would arrive in Falmouth…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":350925,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[748,393,4884,1144,712,16,15,1764],"class_list":{"0":"post-350924","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-uk","8":"category-united-kingdom","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-great-britain","12":"tag-northern-ireland","13":"tag-scotland","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-wales"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115042477919004271","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=350924"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350924\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/350925"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=350924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=350924"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=350924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
