Welcoming all Grown Ups aboard the Playbus - the Final Stop of A Curious Town Plays festival!

Join the double decked red wonder on this most curious journey, stopping for marvellous music, playful performances and superb surprises.

Perfect for wrestling fans & curious folk of all ages - get ready to rumble in a lucid dream! Hagstone Stunners is a show that brings Hastings folklore to life through a mix of drag, high flying wrestling and comedy theatre. This is not wrestling as you’ve seen it before!

A vibrant celebration where creativity and play will merge, inspiring young minds through colour, design and imagination, hosted by Little Mashers.

Back for its third year, The Curious Kids Day is an immersive child centric arts festival which aims to provide young people with an opportunity to take part in a variety of vibrant workshops. There will be a diverse programme of activities run by experienced local artists, including Little Mashers, ZEROH, Marie Louise and Makedo.

Each child will be given a Curiosity Passport on entry to prompt them to explore the space, take part in all the activities on offer and create their own collection of festival memorabilia to take home.

The festival will be split into two sessions from which to choose, 10-1.30pm and 2.30-6pm. Families will have the opportunity to explore as many of the activities as possible during their session all designed to captivate and excite children, with the emphasis being on creativity and the importance of PLAY!

Bless our bunting! It’s the Curious Coastal Village Fete. Join our hip Rev Colin Durr and our gorgeous grannies for an afternoon of hilarity. With lots of stations to explore and try your hand at, this will be a day of silly fun and prizes to be won, for all the family.

With all the charm and wholesome informality of a traditional English Village Fete, A Curious Town brings you a day with all the norms, plus a few curious twists. Come along between midday and 5pm to gorge yourself on cream teas, Pimms and high quality local produce from our market stalls. Take part in vegetable carving, get in a spin with our hula hoop workshop and let your creative side out with flower arranging and cake decorating. Have your face painted, enter the raffle to win fabulous prizes, or get your furry best friend to enter into the dog show - because pets deserve prizes too! 

And don’t forget to explore the space while you’re at it! St Leonards church will be filled with fantastic artwork in the exhibition, installation pieces upstairs, and curious musicians and walkabout performers roaming around to entertain you! 

Curious Agenda will be collaborating with the seminal Hastings event Jack in the Green this May! Come and celebrate the slaying of Jack with us. We are running games for all ages up on the West Hill - crazy golf, Stack in the Green and more.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy!
