After the success of 2025, HiddenBeach Festival returns to Hastings from 7–9 August 2026.
Across three days the town will be transformed with live music, DJs, workshops, fringe performances, film, wellness experiences, food, community markets and late-night afterparties.
After the magic of last year, we’re stepping it up for 2026. This year, Super Early Bird tickets are your best value way to experience HiddenBeach. Not only do you lock in your weekend at the lowest price it will ever be, you’ll also get priority access to book limited-capacity events — from late-night afterparties to exclusive fringe shows — plus first offer on special announcements, including the possibility of an exclusive major artist joining the weekend.
Alongside the music, 2026 introduces an even bigger festival world to explore:
- The brand-new Movie Zone, open all weekend with film experiences from indie showcases to cult favourites
- An expanded Wellness Zone, stretching beyond The Oval into the Hastings landscape with yoga, talks and holistic experiences
- A thriving Fringe Zone, bringing hidden venues and pop-ups alive with art, street culture and performance
- Food, markets and workshops celebrating our community at the Community Zone
- And of course, the legendary Afterparty Zone, keeping HiddenBeach moving long into the night
With more surprises still to come, 2026 promises to be our biggest edition yet.
Super Early Bird tickets are now on sale:
- Adults (16+) – £10
- Under 12s – Free
