"The Game was 100 per cent approved to enter New Zealand. His management and I know this as fact," McManus said.

"We honestly believed The Game would honour his obligations to our festival and it was only when we had our people at the airport on Saturday to pick him up to play Raggamuffin IX did we find out he did not board the plane in Dubai. Statements to the contrary are simply not true.

"We will do everything we can to make this up to all of his upset and disappointed fans."
