Summer Solstice Sunrise
Saturday 21 June, 4.20am
Aldeburgh Beach
We continue the new Festival tradition of gathering on the east coast to greet the rising sun of the summer solstice. Musical and culinary surprises await!
We meet once again at Maggi Hambling’s Scallop to welcome the longest day of the year. Bacon baps will be provided by The Suffolk restaurant and there will be music surprises too.
In the event of wet weather, it might be transferred indoors or cancelled; we will keep our social media updated at the time.
Free; no need to book.
