It looks as if ATP has been cancelled, with venue Pontin's seemingly confirming the news.
UPDATE (15:51):
Founder Barry Hogan says: "We have just spoken to Pontins and we are currently resolving this miscommunication. Our events are going ahead as planned."
UPDATE (15:31):
@atpfestival rescheduled then perhaps, only we've bought really expensive train tickets?

Original story:
It's unclear if it's the Stewart Lee or Drive Like Jehu-curated events, or indeed both, are affected.
The company's recent events have been mired in controversy - Private Eye even reported on their problems recently (here and here).
ATP themselves are yet to comment on the events. ATP were actively plugging the events only hours ago.
ATP's been cancelled everyone https://t.co/j3yTVgVqv0
