The jazz festival sounds great. On the strength of the line-up and dates we saw, we booked flights from Australia and accomomodation for the period from the 17th onwards. The dates have now been published as being 8-12th July and it's now too late to change our arrangements.
The dates should be firmly set and advertised further in advance to allow long haul visitors to make arrangements.
