A huge thanks to all of our funders, sponsors, venues, artists, audiences and volunteers for making this year’s HF ArtsFest the biggest and best yet!

To date, our statistics reveal that in the 9 days of the Festival there were over 800 artists taking part with over 10,000 audience numbers. We also managed to post 79,000 of our printed programme through the letterboxes of every household in the borough! The launch of ‘JOY’ at the Lyric was a huge success and our thanks go to Turtle Key Arts for delivering this fantastic programme. Congratulations to all!
