Let's hope Leeds event team clear the site quickly so that all the park can be enjoyed by all Leeds residents not just those who like the music and can afford a ticket, as was intended when TNP was originally gifted to the city of Leeds

Disgraceful decision to cancel the show.

All the vendors and businesses who really on this, haven’t they had it hard enough the past 2years.

To those complaining Show some respect There again, they probably haven't even heard of the word.

Ridiculous decision. Let people enjoy themselves. Life is tough enough right now.
