SUMMARY:The Koho Festival
DESCRIPTION:Home » Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout\nBack for its third year\, the Koho Festival will return with some exciting changes to this year’s event. One of the biggest updates is a redesigned layout. The acoustic stage will now sit beside the main rock stage. This new arrangement should keep the energy flowing while creating a more relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere across the site. \n  \nFestival Layout\nAnother important change is the introduction of a 20-minute break between bands. In previous years\, performances ran back-to-back with no pause. The new breaks will give sound engineers a well-earned breather. They will also give festival-goers time to top up drinks\, grab some food and enjoy the vibe before the next act. \n  \nCrowd Experience and Site Atmosphere\nBy bringing the bands closer together in one central area\, the organisers hope to create a more focused and lively crowd around the stages. At the same time\, there will still be plenty of space elsewhere for people who want to enjoy the music more casually and catch up with friends. \n  \nLine-Up and Local Music Talent\nThis year\, the Koho Festival aims to pack the venue with 14 incredible acts. Bands\, duos and solo performers will showcase the very best of the local live music scene. It promises to be bigger\, better and one of the best weekends the festival has hosted. \n  \nEvent Scheduling Update\nAnd yes—they listened. Koho is moving to one week after Airbourne Festival to avoid clashes. This time\, there are no excuses. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Information\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:Hastings Old Town Carnival Week
DESCRIPTION:Home » Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout\nHastings Old Town Carnival Week takes place every summer in the Old Town of Hastings\, East Sussex. \n  \nAugust Celebrations in Hastings Old Town\nThe carnival week usually happens during the first week of August. Winkle Island officially opens the celebrations. During the week\, organisers host concerts\, street parties\, charity races and Morris dancing. Participants join the Old Town Carnival procession\, which features floats\, dancers\, majorettes and marching bands. The evening ends with a firework display. \n  \nHistory of the Carnival (Since 1968)\nThe carnival began in 1968. Old Town residents felt that the original Hastings Carnival should have included the Old Town in its route\, so they created their own event. Over time\, the Old Town carnival grew bigger and more popular\, while the Hastings carnival declined and eventually stopped. As a parting gesture\, the organisers gave the Carnival Queen the title “Miss Hastings.” In 2018\, they rebranded the Carnival Court as the Sea Court and added a King\, who holds the title “Mr Hastings.” \n  \nFireworks Over the English Channel\nThe week concludes with a spectacular firework display over the waters of the English Channel. Bright colours fill the night sky and reflect on the sea. The display impresses both first-time visitors and long-time carnival fans. \n\n\n\n\n\nOld Town Carnival – Procession Route Map & Event Locations \n\n\nEvent Information\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation
