Returning on Friday 12th September 2025
Our first Festivals Awayday was held in September 2024 at Sallis Benney Theatre, University of Brighton and it was such a success, with many attendees having expressed gratitude for the useful information they’ve gathered from our speakers, that we are now planning to host it every year.
Festivals Awayday is a day of event producers, and anyone involved with events, coming from all over East Sussex to come together to talk, share ideas and maybe even discuss potential collaborative work. We also invite artists we have previously worked with, to showcase their work on the day.
Are you interested in coming along for the next one? Here’s what you could look forward to:
- Networking opportunities throughout the day
- Professional development for producers, Local Authorities, trustees, festival committee members and more
- Build a Festival Producers Network
- See artists’ showcases
- Choose from a programme of workshops on the day
- Funding Ideas
