Find your thing
What’s Happening, Hastings? is your go-to guide for what’s happening in Hastings, St Leonards and the surrounding area – gigs, openings, markets, food, theatre, family stuff and all the other good bits that make this town oh, so wonderful.
We find it and then we filter it – all you need to do is fill your free time with the things that matter to you.
WE SUPPORT LOCAL
What’s Happening, Hastings? exists to champion the independent businesses that give our town its irresistible charm.
We help locals and day-trippers discover and support the people who make it special – organising independents by category so people can find somewhere to eat, somewhere to stay, a venue for the next big party, or a hidden gem that the locals think is well worth the detour.
Wherever you fit, What’s Happening, Hastings? is where people will find your business.
Looking for something specific? Browse all or filter by mood: live music, food, family time, or just mooching with the dog – and you’re sorted in seconds.
HOW IT STARTED
This is a Seaside Romeo venture and is powered by people who actually live here and love it. If it’s on What’s Happening, Hastings?, it’s because someone who genuinely cares about this town put it there.
