In a statement Sean BW Parker said: “Due to licence issues with the outdoor venue, The Lightning Seeds have unfortunately had to pull out of Blakefest.

“However we have lined up two of Bognor’s finest venues, Legends of the Pier and SeaFiSh, with the festival taking place there on Saturday and Sunday respectively.
