Hastings Easter Festival 2019 Live Event

About Hastings Easter Festival

The Easter Festival celebrates Easter within the community, in a music and arts festival  held on Easter Saturday. There are bands and live music performers from different music genres, an art exhibition, plus local food vendors. Entry is free with donations welcome to help cover our costs. Tickets can be downloaded in advance from www.eventbrite.co.uk

We have appreciated generous sponsorship by the local charity Hastings Youth Trust, and from within the local church. We have received valued support from web design and digital marketing company FreshOnline.

The event celebrates the death and resurrection of Jesus.  Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life and have it in all its fullness.” (John 10:10). This is the eternal hope and significance of Easter, that on the cross, Jesus shed His blood as a ransom for us for the forgiveness of our sins. To rescue us and welcome us home to where He is seated with the Heavenly Father who loves us. By His resurrection, He defeated death and opened the door to eternal life. In knowing Him we can find grace, peace and undying joy. This is the celebration of Easter. He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and He gave His life that we could live.

Easter Celebration

On Good Friday the churches in the Old Town hold the stations of the cross procession through the Old Town. It starts at St Clement’s at 10 am.
