East Fest będzie pierwszym plenerowym, multi-artystycznym świętem polskiej i wschodnioeuropejskiej sztuki i kultury w centrum Luton.
Festiwal opiera się na osiągnięciach Polonii 2019 i będzie zabawnym i pouczającym wydarzeniem prezentującym elementy polskie, żydowskie, litewskie, ukraińskie, białoruskie i łemkowskie z nowym dodatkiem kultur bułgarskich, węgierskich i rumuńskich, które razem stworzyły współczesną kulturę Europy Wschodniej .
Umiejscawiając East Fest w centrum miasta, w pobliżu sklepów i innych obiektów, przyciągniemy publiczność ze wszystkich społeczności i dodamy to wydarzenie kulturalne w Europie Wschodniej do rosnącej gamy wydarzeń organizowanych przez społeczność w Luton.
Zbierzemy program głośnych międzynarodowych artystów; wysokiej jakości artyści z Wielkiej Brytanii, którzy
oferują wgląd w różnorodność kultury Europy Wschodniej oraz lokalnych artystów i grup społecznych
którzy ucieleśniają żywotność społeczności wschodnioeuropejskich w Luton. Celem Festiwalu jest:
zbliżyć do siebie wszystkie społeczności Luton i stworzyć więcej okazji do świętowania spójności w
miasto.
Przez cały dzień będziemy prezentować różne formy sztuki, w tym muzykę od zespołów rumuńskich i słowacko-polskich po bułgarskie zespoły taneczne folkowe i wschodnioeuropejskie.
