The subject is not notable; the article contains no indication of notability; and it has been tagged as unsourced since Jan 2009. "Soundwave Festival" is ambiguous with the different Soundwave (Australian music festival). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:13, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: fails WP:EVENT. There is also a Soundwave Festival in Croatia, and a Soundwaves Festival in Brighton in England, both unrelated to this. But this is not a notable UK festival outside of the seaside town where it was held. It doesn't seem like it has taken place again since the 2016 event, and there's barely any mention of that year's event on the internet. The festival's own publicity says that the attendance "frequently surpassed 800 people"[1] – with respect to the organisers and their worthy cause, you can see we're not talking the tens of thousands that attend Glastonbury or Lollapalooza or Tomorrowland every year.

Delete – I can't find the depth of coverage that would be required to satisfy WP:EVENT. The most recent sources I could find were all published in the lead-up to the 2016 event, and there's no indication that incarnation had any sort of significant coverage after the fact. – bradv🍁 17:00, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
