First Light Festival is a community gathering that warmly welcomes those from down the road and across the world to celebrate a unique place at a very special time: the first sunrise of midsummer in the UK’s most easterly town.

The festival is organised by First Light Festival Community Interest Company (CIC), a not-for-profit organisation based in Lowestoft that aims to shine a spotlight this incredible part of the world, and the wealth of talent and creativity that exists there. I was involved in adorning the ship wreck for kids to wreak havoc on with blue paint!
