Get it Together & Dance
For the end of May Bank holiday, the world of dance music is showcased and brought across the town by Let’s Get It Together Festival, featuring 30 DJs playing across 10 Hastings and St Leonards venues, with sets running from 12pm noon until 3am from Friday 22 to Sunday 24 May. The festival’s venues include:
The Old Town: The She and Blackbox
Hastings Town Centre: The Courtyard, Barnaby’s and The Crypt
St Leonards: The Piper, Crown House, Oscar’s and Collected Fictions
Starting with Friday’s opening party at French’s in Robertson Street, festival-goers can expect a wide range of music: funk, house, electronica and Latin music including big beat DJ Jon Carter, Grammy nominated Philadelphia soul producer Vikter Duplaix, and Smokin Jo, the first woman to win DJ Mag’s DJ of the Year.
First put on as a birthday celebration in 2022, Let’s Get It Together was founded by local DJs Gary Oehme (Gary O), Ian Milne (djsoulprovyder) and Charles Osaji (Sheer Bronze) to celebrate the local dance music community and bring on emerging talent.
Tickets for Let’s Get It Together are £20 for day pass or £45 for weekend passes. Visit letsgetittogether.co.uk for festival programme
