About
The East Anglian Festival Network (The EAFN) provides a framework to connect festival organisers, workers, suppliers, traders, venues, performers, and festival goers across the East of England.
The EAFN aims to help build the relationships that will support the local economy and culture, whilst reducing environmental impact and promoting well-being and safety at the region’s events.
The EAFN Directory lists over fifteen-hundred of the region’s festivals, fairs, fundays, venues, suppliers, stall holders, traders and performers.
East Anglia has a wealth of quality suppliers, contractors, and traders who provide the products and services for the region’s festival industry. Sourcing locally can have huge financial, environmental and logistical benefits.
The region also has a multitude of excellent indoor, greenfield and street-based venues and a rich vein of talented artists and entertainers.
Over eight-hundred festivals, fairs, and fundays are held each year across the East of England in the counties of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk.
Membership of The EAFN is open to organisations and individuals involved in the organisation and running of festivals in the East of England or supplying festivals with services.
The EAFN publicises and promotes the region’s festivals to festival goers across the region and beyond.
The EAFN was founded by Mike Wilson in 2017, his passion for all things to do with festivals has not waned, indeed he has encouraged others to join him in his quest to promote festivals across the East of England.
