SUPER SUNDAY POSTPONED

Due to Storm Amy we are postponing the event until Sunday 21st September.

Regrettably we have had to make the difficult decision to postpone this Sunday’s event. The Trustees and Festival Team took advice, and consider that it is not safe to go ahead given the predicted extreme weather, additionally we want to provide the best possible conditions to enable every opportunity for a well attended and successful day.


We have sought permission from Hurstpierpoint Parish Council to move Super Sunday to Sunday 21st September, and hope that you are available to come on that date.


Become a Friend of the Festival

Thanks to the financial and personal support from the Friends of the Festival, we are able to put on a huge variety of events for all parts of the community with some of the best talent Sussex has to offer.

The Friends Priority Booking period opens two weeks before tickets go on general sale.

Friends Benefits

Friends membership costs just £35 a year and gives you access to a two week priority booking period before tickets go on sale to the general public.

As well as this early opportunity to purchase tickets, Friends receive an exclusive invitation to the Friends of the Festival Launch event.

During the 2 weeks of the Festival local businesses have great offers solely for Friends of the Festival.

Volunteer with Us


Volunteers are the backbone of the Hurst Festival and we are always looking for people to join our happy band. They are a team of local people who enjoy the Arts and like to volunteer their time in a productive way. The overarching aims of the Festival are to entertain and offer an opportunity to widen perspectives by offering a diversity of cultural events and our Volunteers are an integral part of this mission.

Volunteers bring their many skills of hospitality, customer services, logistics and stage management so the Festival runs like a well oiled machine. The Festival would not be the success that it is without the Volunteers and we require all kinds of skills to help run the events. With so many different things happening during the Festival you will be sure to fund something that suits your interests.

If you would like to volunteer to be a part of the Festival you can sign up to our Volunteer mailing list at the bottom of this page in the yellow box. We will then be in touch nearer the festival each year, with details of how to register for events.
