Brighton Festival 2025
3 May – 26 May

This year’s edition, guest-directed by sitarist, composer and activist Anoushka Shankar, is the first under new CEO Lucy Davies, after 16 years with Andrew Comben at the helm. We’re particularly looking forward to AYNA by Brighton-based Ceyda Tanc Dance, Hofesh Shechter’s Theatre of Dreams (see ROSA #12 page 40) and JJ Waller and Martin Parr’s Beside the Sea (page 64).
