Organiser Vanessa Craven said she had thrown everything behind the festival, but was unable to make it financially sustainable.
In the past, the festival had been a recipient of a community grant, but organisers were unable to secure the grant this year.
The festival has been held for four years.
Ms Craven said she hoped to run a charity concert on the same date, taking the financial pressures off funding a festival out of her own pocket.
“There was a bit of a folk and blues gap, so we tried to fill that. Maybe one of the other festivals will pick that up now,” she said.
