Lightwaves evening finale cancelled due to the storm – but daytime event will continue
The organisers have had to cancel the Lightwaves evening finale event in Sutton-on-Sea tomorrow (Saturday, October 24) due to the upcoming Storm Boelo.
In a statement on social media, East Lindsey District Council said: “Sadly, due to safety concerns caused by the stormy weather forecast, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to cancel the Lightwaves evening finale in Sutton-on-Sea.
“However, bringing our community together remains at the heart of Story Tellers, so we’ll still be hosting a smaller daytime event in Sutton-on-Sea town centre from 11am to 1pm.”
Designed with local residents in mind, the event will feature lantern displays at the Methodist Church, a silent disco and more, giving the community a chance to enjoy a little Lightwaves magic during the day.
They added: “We’re sorry for any disappointment and thank you for your understanding.”
Three earlier stages of the Lightwaves festival had been previously held at Spilsby, Chapel St Leonards and Sandilands.
People were advised to keep an eye on Story Tellers Lincs for further updates.
