A music festival set to take place in Glasgow next month has been rescheduled due to an issue.

Platform Festival - known as PLTFRM FSTVL - was due to take place in Tradeston on June 29 and June 30.

However, the electronic music event - which was set to feature artists including Frazi.er, Bailey Ibbs and many more  - will no longer take place next month.

Organisers of it took to social media to reveal they have been informed that Glasgow City Council 'can't authorise' the final part of its license.

However, the local authority has said they did not receive the application for the license until May 10 and it takes 12 weeks to process an application.

After announcing the devastating news, bosses of the event have said it will now take place on September 28 and September 29.

In the post, the organisers said: "We are extremely devastated to announce that we have been forced to move our summer PLTFRM back to our usual September weekend.

"Unfortunately, last week we were informed that due to limited resources at Glasgow City Council & local authorities, they can't authorise the final part of our license in time although we have followed the same procedures for the last 11 years and even provided more documentation this time around.

"We have also had MPs fighting our corner to authorise this in time. To find this out is frustrating, soul-destroying, and now comes at a huge logistical and financial loss.

"But the show will go on!"

They added: "The buzz for PLTFRM has been incredible, we are building a strong community of people who love music. 

"The Saturday is now nearly completely sold out and the Sunday is not far behind, and we understand the frustrations that come with this announcement.

"Although things are still going ahead, we have put a lot of work into offering you all a summer project and this is something we will still continue to push for in future.

"The new dates will be our usual September weekend - Saturday, September 28 and Sunday, September 29.

"All ticket holders can hold as normal, if you cannot make the new date you will be issued a full refund.

"The good news though - our scheduled PLTFRM BY NIGHT parties will still go ahead.

"Saturday, June 29 at The Ferry and Sunday, June 30 at Sub Club."

A spokeswoman for the council said: “Unfortunately, the application for a temporary public entertainment licence from the event organisers for the Platform Festival was not received by our licensing team until May 10, seven weeks prior to their event.

“We are very clear that applications for temporary public entertainment licences should be lodged no later than three months in advance of a proposed event to allow enough time for the required public safety checks to be undertaken.

“The three-month timescale has been in place for many years and we advised the promoter their application could not be accepted as there was insufficient time for it to be processed.

“Any further applications from this event organiser will be dealt with in the appropriate manner.”
