Organisers of a music festival raising funds for local schools said the event will not take place this year.
School Aid was founded in 2018 and traditionally runs over a weekend in February, with live music from local artists raising money for several primary schools in Morecambe and Lancaster.
Last year's event raised £13,000, taking the total amount raised over seven years to £42,000.
Jay Blackburn and Rob Ellershaw, who co-founded School Aid, have decided to put the event on hold this year.
Mr Blackburn, who took over the Golden Ball at Snatchems in 2025 with his wife Lucy, said the new role meant he'd been unable to devote the time needed to make the event a success this year.
He said he hoped School Aid will return in 2027.
Mr Blackburn, a musician, and Mr Ellershaw, landlord of The Exchange pub in Morecambe, founded School Aid after Jay watched a shocking TV news report about the poverty of children in a local primary school.
The event has been supported by Beyond Radio each year since its inception, and has traditionally been held at The Bobbin in Lancaster and The Exchange.
School Aid is not the only established event in Morecambe not taking place in 2026.
It was announced last July that the popular Baylight light art festival will not happen this year but is expected to return in 2027.
