Subscriber only Bluesfest organisers have had to pay more than $90,000 to a tribunal for holding ahead of its appeal against a January ruling. Stallholders who had planned to operate at last year s festival have meanwhile called on Bluesfest to drop their NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal appeal. A group of 11 stallholders, including food and retail vendors, took Bluesfest Services Pty Ltd to NCAT in a bid to have their stallholder fees refunded. A public health order was issued shortly before the planned 2020 festival, meaning it could not go ahead. Senior NCAT member Graham Ellis ordered Bluesfest to repay $90,250.45 in January but the festival has since lodged an appeal against that decision.
