An event billed as the “UK’s newest premier model garden railway festival”, due to be held at the town’s Royal International Pavilion this autumn, has been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The organising team for Llangollen Garden Railway Festival posted on Facebook yesterday: “Unfortunately, I am writing to you this evening with the sad news that the Llangollen Garden Railway Festival 2020 rescheduled for 3rd of October 2020 will not be going ahead as planned.

“The Event Manager Mr Keith Potts has been informed that the venue, where the show was due to be held, will remain closed until at least January 2021.

“This is totally beyond our control and we feel the disappointment that no doubt you will feel too.

“With the current uncertainty surrounding the Covid19 virus, it will be difficult to arrange a definite date for 2021 but we are hoping that we will be able to arrange another show for next year, depending on the prevailing circumstances.

“We thank you for your continued support and will keep you updated on any developments as they happen.”
