At Eastbourne Music Fest, we’re all about live music, but more importantly, we’re passionate about our local community and the incredible charities that make a difference. That’s why, in 2025, we’re launching an event called "25 for 25” to raise funds for Eastbourne’s RNLI.

Chris will be raising the bar & taking on his biggest challenge yet, with a 25-mile kayak paddle from Beachy Head to Cooden Beach and back. While out on the water, he’ll also be going live on Facebook with some messages on the importance of water safety and enjoying our coastline responsibly.

But we need your help to make a real impact! The RNLI crew really are the definition of unsung heroes. These men and women volunteer their time & risk their lives at a moment’s notice to help people in need. As the saying goes, "Not all heroes wear capes" & in our opinion, anyone that does what these volunteers do, deserves to be called a hero.

💙 So please help us raise vital funds for Eastbourne’s RNLI and support this amazing charity.
