About

Explore Hastings History, Witchy Tales and Festive Folklore - and join us for a mulled wine Wassail

We'll be stepping out just hours before the longest night to explore Hastings Old Town. Discover winter folklore, local history, and seasonal traditions, ending with a warming wassail at The Crown pub.

The Winter Solstice has always been a night for gathering together, the moment when the world tilts toward the light again, and stories become a way of keeping the dark at bay. Hastings, with its tangled lanes and centuries of superstition, is the perfect place to honour this turning of the year.
