Hastings Fat Tuesday CIC is a not for profit organisation.

HFT CIC is raising funds to deliver the 2025 Hastings Fat Tuesday Festival, which is unable to go ahead without significant support. DONATE NOW

We would like to thank all those who have generously donated towards the fundraising campaign. Your sponsorship enables HFT to support and develop opportunities for local artists, grassroots music venues, the cultural economy and the community of Hastings and St Leonards.

HFT delivers an ambitious programme of live music performance, creative music-making opportunities, and music industry skills development. This includes Sonics, Hastings Fat Tuesday Music Festival, Fat Tuesday Club, Under the Radar and Voodoo Fest alongside additional community and education projects.
