Rhythm Tree world music festival has been postponed due to bad weather.

Organisers of the three-day Isle of Wight event, due to take place at Three Gates Farm in Calbourne on July 20, 21 and 22, said they were forced to postpone the festival because of the waterlogged ground.

The festival has been rescheduled and is now due to take place between August 24 and August 26.

Rhythm Tree music director Gerry Priddle said the decision to postpone the event was made today (Thursday), following an inspection of the site.

He said: "Car parking is one of the big issues. What happened at the Isle of Wight Festival was a big pull-up for everybody."
