  • Butlin's Bognor Regis will not host Bugged Out Weekender in 2017. The festival has been held in Bognor Regis for four out of the last five years, but will not return next year. "Our key product has always been family breaks," a Butlin's spokesman said, "and because we need to develop areas of our resorts with those in mind, it means we are unable to host Bugged Out in 2017. We have seen some amazing acts and characters over the last few years, and we wish the organisers every success." Bugged Out are currently searching for a new date and location, and have promised to issue full refunds to everyone who has already bought a ticket. The Bugged Out! In Dreamland festival at Margate will go ahead as planned, with Jackmaster, Ben UFO and Joy Orbison set to play the one-day festival on September 24th.
