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 on our incredible part of the world, and the wealth of talent and creativity that exists here.
Alongside the festival, we oversee a year-round programme of arts and events that includes the running of East Point Pavilion on Lowestoft’s seafront, and a number of projects across East Suffolk. As of November 2022, we are proud to be an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation (NPO).
We are proud to be an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation (NPO).
Each year, hundreds of local volunteers help us bring South Beach alive, and we work with local schools, the colleges and community groups on creative projects that lead into the festival. First Light works with a huge number of local and regional creative and technical practitioners for the festival as well as with makers, producers and traders.
We work closely with our local authorities to make sure that our impact spreads as widely and as positively as possible.
