Want to know what’s happening in East Sussex this Halloween?
We are spoilt for seasonal events throughout the year in East Sussex. But none are quite as good as the events we have in the autumn (in our opinion anyway). From unmissable bonfire nights to stunning autumnal scenery, to spooky-themed celebrations, there is something for adults and children alike.
