The Hidden Beach Festival 2027

Hidden Beach Festival returns in 2027 with its biggest Hastings edition yet — three full days of music, culture, food, community and unforgettable summer energy at The Oval.

Taking place across Friday 13th, Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th, Hidden Beach 2027 will expand into a three-day celebration as part of our wider Summer of Culture programme.

For the first time, Friday will become part of the festival weekend, introducing a new opening-day experience and giving us even more space to build something special across the three days.

Across the weekend, expect an amazing line-up of live artists, DJs, sound systems and special performances, alongside great food, independent traders, family activity and the unmistakable Hidden Beach atmosphere that brings people together every summer.

One of the major additions for 2027 will be the introduction of an orchestral element, bringing a new dimension to the Hidden Beach sound and creating something genuinely distinctive within the festival programme.

Saturday will deliver a huge central festival day, packed with music, performance and summer energy from start to finish.

Then on Sunday, Love Sensation returns to close the weekend with a full day of uplifting music, DJs and feel-good energy — the perfect finale to three days at The Oval.

Hidden Beach has always been about more than just a stage and a line-up. It is about creating a space where music, culture, community and people come together, and 2027 will take that idea further than ever before.

With three days, new creative elements, an orchestral programme, Love Sensation on Sunday and an incredible line-up still to be revealed, Hidden Beach Festival 2027 is shaping up to be one of our most ambitious celebrations yet.

Three days. One festival. One Summer of Culture.
