Hull’s annual Freedom Festival is on tour for the very first time in the festival’s history and will be visiting Bridlington beach with an exclusive one-day appearance.
The event on Thursday August 31st will give audiences the opportunity to witness the internationally renowned performances that appear at the main festival each year.
Councillor Nick Coultish, portfolio holder for culture, leisure and tourism, at East Riding Council said:
“It’s great news that the council’s Arts Team, East Riding Arts, has been able to invest in this exciting new event for Bridlington, which will be a fantastic afternoon both for residents and visitors. The Freedom Festival in Hull is always very popular, and it’s very pleasing that we can now bring it on to the East Riding coast as well!”
Taking place between Bridlington Spa and RNLI Lifeboat Station, this event will be completely free to attend and will run from midday until 5pm.
Senior Producer of Freedom Festival Arts Trust, Laura Beddows said:
“We are incredibly excited to be working with East Riding Arts to take a taster of Freedom Festival to the beautiful Bridlington seafront next to the famous Bridlington Spa, and to showcase the phenomenal talent which appears at the festival each year to a new audience. We encourage everyone to join us for our first Festival outing and hope if they like what they see they can also join us at the main Festival in Hull at the weekend!"
The day will feature ‘EXIT’ by Circumstances, described as "an exciting, impressive physical circus and dance performance where movement, acrobatics and balance board merge."
‘Encore une fois’ by Tripotes la Compagnie is described as "six shoulders, three heads and one collective, bringing a playful energy of circus, seesawing between reckless danger and perilous fragility."
