It boasted a line-up of bands including The Killers, Pulp, Def Leppard, Wet Leg and The Libertines.
The 45,000 capacity three-day event was due to be held this August bank holiday and was billed as the world's first hydrogen-powered music festival.

After we tracked Mr Kenny down he insisted he intended for the festival to go ahead, adding he was "truly sorry" to those who had lost money.
