Burning the Clocks 2020 The Lantern Trail
Brighton, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Burning the Clocks is a much loved tradition. We cant parde and burn this year! So help us keep it alive by supporting our amazing trail.
Burning the Clocks needs your help to survive Covid 19
Every year on 21st December, the winter solstice, we produce this much-loved event in Brighton. Burning the Clocks combines a beautiful lantern procession through the streets of Brighton, with a spectacular fire and fireworks show, bringing the whole city together to celebrate and reflect on the past year.
The current pandemic has restricted many of our movements and has affected lots of events. Lets keep the flame alive by taking part in this special 2020 version.
Same Sky has received some support from the governments Cultural Recovery Fund via Arts Council England, which we are matching with our own reserves and funds raised from our supporters through donations and this crowdfunder. These generous donations will support many of our key artists by funding them to make bespoke themed lanterns that will form a trail through some of Brighton and Hove's unique shops.
Burning the Clocks was created in 1993 as an antidote to the excesses of the commercial Christmas and as a way to celebrate the festive season regardless of faith, embracing our entire community. It brings people together from all ages and walks of life to celebrate our fantastically unique city and to share the things that bind us all.
