It's the end of an era for iconic music festival Splore, with the event concluding for good this year.

The festival's organisers confirmed that declining ticket sales forced them to pull the pin on the event.

Splore festival director John Minty says it was important to wrap things up on a high note, but it's been sad for the crew.

"We've created a family and a beautiful sort of community - obviously with our crew, but also with all the Splore-ers. And when we announced this was going to be the last one, there was definitely a lot of sadness."
