Organised by East Sussex County Council First World War Commemorations

A major exhibition called Crowborough’s War 1914-1918 will be held at the Beacon Academy School from Monday 22 October until Thursday 25 October. The exhibition will tell the story of the town and the thousands of soldiers who were based in the army camps

The festival programme will start on Saturday 20 October with a commemorative Choral Concert held in the Main Hall of Beacon Academy School. The concert programme of Pergolesi Stabat Mater and the Fauré Requiem will also feature an original score called This Human Shield, specially written for the occasion by local composer Simon Austin, and poet and writer Nick Nye.

As the festival takes place during half term week we will have lots of fun as well as educational activities for young people, including creative workshops.
