Community Festivals Forum
The Community Festivals Forum (CFF) is a network of community festival organisers and volunteers, some of whom have been involved in organising festivals for many years.
The network exists to share information and ideas to support the running of festivals (or other celebratory events) for the benefit of communities in Brighton & Hove.
We hold a showcase every year, which is a chance for members to meet face to face, exchange ideas and show videos, pictures and displays from their events. You can download the notes from the 2009 festivals showcase here.
Recently, CVSF set up an e-group for CFF members to communicate throughout the year, exchange tips and offer each other advice and support.
Other services we offer include information sheets about all the festivals we know of throughout the year. You can download these below. (This information is constantly changing year after year and we rely on our members to tell us about their events, so if you notice something missing, do let us know!)

We have also created a list of support services for local festivals.
