Good Grief Hastings Festival

Coming Friday 22nd May – Monday 25th May (Spring Bank Holiday) 2026

18 Hours is working with St Michael’s Hospice to bring people a safe space where people can feel comfortable discussing personal experiences around death and bereavement.

Within an environment consisting of art, film, dance, conversation, and more, through workshops, performances, and film, Good Grief encourages attendees to open up about their grief at their own pace.

Thank you to everyone who has submitted any ideas for this event. 18 Hours will be in touch with you in the coming weeks to discuss the development of your project so please keep an eye out for your emails.
