We’re looking for artists and performers of all kinds to join us at this year’s festival.

This year, Here Comes The Sun will fall on Saturday 12th August. It’s always a great mix of music, dance, poetry and all kinds of arts across three stages and elsewhere around the grounds (inculding on a piano in our driveway!) – and our plans for this year’s event have begun in earnest.

If you want to be considered for this year’s programme, contact our team at programming@risingsun-artscentre.co.uk with the subject line “HCTS 17 application”, with info/links to show us just what you can bring to this year’s event. Our team will duly consider all proposals
