Following the very successful tenth anniversary of Lindfield Arts Festival last year and in light of the present uncertainty regarding the global coronavirus pandemic, the trustees of Lindfield Arts Festival have taken the difficult decision that they will not be holding a festival in September.

Instead, the plan is to return in September 2021 with a bigger and better festival than ever. Chair of Trustees Geoff Heath said: “We are a small charity with limited funds and so have decided it would be better to not commit the required upfront costs in such an uncertain period but instead use the money more productively for next year’s festival.

“However, if the Coronavirus situation develops positively over the coming months, we may hold some smaller pop-up events in September 2020, so watch this space!”

In the meantime, the LAF organising team are taking the opportunity to refresh and regroup the volunteer management team to develop new ideas and welcome new volunteers.
