Welcome to the Freedom Fun Festival Website

Freedom Fun Festival is a new three day event set in fields and woodland of the Sussex Downs near Hailsham, north of Eastbourne, which takes place from Friday 26th until Sunday 28th June.
An intimate gathering for people of all ages, the fun family festival aims to be a celebration of music, dance, song, healing and friendship within a safe, fun and magical space. As well as an array of talented musicians, festival goers get the opportunity to take part in a variety of workshops, breathe in the country air, have a massage, drink cold beer, lick an ice-cream, watch a show, or even be in one! There's a chance to have a dance, do some yoga, be immersed in the healing sounds of a gong bath, wander the fields and natter with fellow festies. Or find our hobgoblin area with its tiny wine bar and have a tarot reading.
Children can find traditional story-telling in the kids tipi tent, take part in street dancing or circus skills, stroke a shetland pony and munch on mini pancakes.
Saturday day sees an Art Auction being opened by mezzo soprano Victoria Gray, followed by a magnificent fire show on Saturday night courtesy of Poi Passion. Plus stalls, hog roast, catering marquee and refreshments available throughout.
