ORGANISERS have pulled the plug on the Soundclash festival which was held at Somerley House near Ringwood.

The festival has attracted around 16,500 music lovers to the site over the past two occasions.

The changes will see the festival take place across a number of venues in Southampton, headlined by chart-toppers Rudimental.

Somerley House, who didn’t wish to comment, hosted the event twice last year after it moved from the Silverlake Stadium in Eastleigh in May 2015 when organisers wanted to expand.

The new festival is expected to attract more than 7,500 partygoers to a number of venues across Southampton including Oceana and Switch.
