2025 Hastings Musical Festival
Hastings Musical Festival 2025
We will be in The White Rock Theatre again in February and March for the Hastings Musical Festival. Unfortunately we are no longer able to use the theatre on Fridays and Saturdays so our sessions will be a little more spread out.
Hastings Musical Festival takes place at the White Rock Theatre each year. Dancers, singers, musicians and actors of all ages perform in classes which are marked by an adjudicator who is a specialist and an expert in the field. Feedback is given to everyone and the winners of each class are announced. In all sections there are special medal classes and the winners of these classes are awarded our prestigious Hastings Musical Festival medals. In many classes a trophy is also awarded and in the junior classes we are again awarding first, second and third festival awards. If you enter the Festival over a number of years and then wish to go on to study at a college or university on a course for performing arts you can apply for a grant from the Festival. You may also be eligible for the Molly Townson Bursary - given to one entrant each year - of £3,000. On top of that you may also gain an award from The Foster Trust to help towards your studies.
