Kids to take over Eastbourne Bandstand this summer
Starting on Tuesday, July 25, the weekly parties will see the bandstand transformed into an outdoor disco with a live band, DJ, face-painting and bubble machine.
Margaret Bannister, borough councillor for Tourism and Entreprise, said, “These evenings are a superb way to introduce younger music fans to the bandstand, and really bring that holiday atmosphere once school’s out.
“The kids won’t want the summer holidays to end.”

Parents can come along to show off their moves on the dance floor or leave the kids to it and have a drink at the bar.
Leo the lifeguard will be joining in the fun each week, leading the conga around the bandstand.
Youngsters can also enjoy a princess or superhero makeover with weekly free face-painting.
