THE BROMYARD Gala due to take place this weekend has been cancelled for the second time in its history due to the sudden heavy rainfall.

Although the main event is cancelled, for only the second time since 1967, the Gala Parade through the town centre on Saturday (July 7) at 11am will still take place.

Ticket holders can either keep their tickets for use at next year's event or claim a full refund.
