Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
The comment the reviewer left was:
You’ve made a good start in the article, however, as yet it lacks sufficient sources which prove notability. It requires 2-3 sources which are reliable, independent, secondary sources, which talk at length about the topic of the article. Unfortunately the sources you have so far aren’t quite there. Preferably the sources would, rather than giving details, talk about the festival itself at length - how it started, the purpose, who runs it, etc etc. lists of bands for each year’s festival is unfortunately not going to get us there. Good luck and keep up the hard work 👍

FeedbackThe reviewer, ArthurTheGardener, left the following feedback:
This draft is not written from a neutral point of view. Wikipedia articles must be written neutrally in a formal, impersonal, and dispassionate way. They should not read like a blog post, advertisement, or fan page. Rewrite the draft to remove:
Please avoid vague phrases like: "Many of the organizers and performers have gained credibility..." etc. which come across as meaningless and promotional.
