Aim: HFT CIC is raising funds to keep the main festival programme free.
Did you enjoy Hastings Fat Tuesday Music Festival?
We still need a little extra help to allow us to keep the main festival elements free for all in the future, including our community and school umbrella workshops, our family parade and our main music tours.
Since its inauguration 15 years ago the festival has established itself as a major event in the town’s calendar, one off the largest grassroots music events in the Southeast. The festival schedules more than 380 live shows across five days, reaching aggregate live audiences of more than 27,000. 80% of the events are free, removing financial barriers for all and providing a host of benefits - not only to those attending but to the local economy, the education sector and to the 500+ grassroots musicians and freelancers who take part.
