Welcome to the website of Burgess Hill's Annual Fairtrade and Freedom Festival. This takes place during FAIRTRADE FORTNIGHT and we have another exciting festival combining entertainment and information as we help raise awareness of Fairtrade and trade justice in the town and beyond. Burgess Hill has been a Fairtrade town since 2006 and we value this status highly. There will be plenty of opportunities to sample and buy Fairtrade and fairly traded goods plus events for people of all ages to enjoy. So please get involved.
