Beatles Day founder and local legend Pete Prescott will also be performing.

Matt Dyson, from The Dave Berry Breakfast Show on Absolute Radio, will be one of the hosts on the day.

Younger fans can also join the Little Beatles music making session between 2pm and 5pm and learn how to perform a song using different instruments and sounds with live performing musicians.

Event Performance Manager, Gillian Payne, said:“There will be over 10 hours of live music from local and national acts interpreting songs from across the entire Beatles collection with many iconic classics on offer for new generations, as well as lifelong fans. It’s an event not to be missed in the Hastings calendar.”

This annual family event will be raising funds for local charity, The Sara Lee Trust who support people in Hastings and Rother that have been diagnosed with cancer or another life threatening illness by providing free counselling and therapy care.

The charity relies almost entirely on voluntary donations, so they are incredibly grateful to the Beatles Day Committee for supporting their vital work in helping hundreds of people every year to live life to the full, in spite of the cancer within.

The one day celebration of the Beatles has raised more than £300,000 for charity over the past 20 years.

It became an online event in the past two years, due to the pandemic, with performers giving up their time to live stream songs.
