The one day FREE family-friendly festival returns in memory of local girl Ellie Thornton. Get ready for a fun-filled day of live music, delicious food, and endless activities at ELLIEFEST 2024.
Starting at 11am, festivalgoers will be treated to a full line-up of musical artists, including local favourites Shoreham AllStars, Sussex Rock Choir, Danni W, emerging artists from BIMM Brighton, including Willow Jarvis and Dixie Darling, and a closing set from Glastonbury DJ Sound Lady. The line-up will also include a performance from Brighton and Hove’s Three Score Dance, a contemporary dance company that challenges perceptions about ageing.
Festivalgoers can grab a drink from the licensed bar and kick back on the lawn to enjoy the sights and sounds. For the little ones, don't miss the family sports day, Buckets of Fun, craft activities, doodle box, face painting, bouncy castle and slide. When you’ve worked up an appetite, indulge in wood-fired pizzas from Pizza Villaggio, tacos from Fire and Rocket and The Ellie Thornton Foundation's BBQ. Expert baristas from Coffee and Creams will be serving a range of high-quality, freshly brewed coffee and bubble tea. There will be sweet treats, including ice cream, candy floss, popcorn, and crepes from local providers Chocolate Balloons and The Pop Up Food Co; visitors can also relax with tea and handmade cakes at Ellie's Cake Café.
With games, crafts, and more, there's something for everyone to spend an afternoon at the festival. Admission is free, but donations are strongly encouraged. All proceeds of the event will support The Ellie Thornton Foundation's mission. www.elliethorntonfoundation.org.uk
