Love Supreme Festival

Love Supreme Festival launched in 2013 and was quickly hailed as one of the best new festivals in the UK, before becoming the largest outdoor jazz festival in Europe, thanks to a unique blend of world-class artists from across the jazz, soul, R&B and funk spectrum.

Hailed as “an eclectic, cross-generational, multifaceted celebration” by The Guardian (and given five stars), the festival is located within the grounds of Glynde Place nestled in the stunning South Downs, approximately 20 minutes from Brighton and just over an hour from central London by train or by car.

The festival has hosted legends such as Earth,

Wind & Fire, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu, Herbie Hancock, George Benson, Gregory Porter, Nile Rodgers and Chick Corea. Since its inception the festival has been a key part of the explosion of the British jazz scene over the last ten years, hosting contemporary stars such as Little Simz, Tom Misch, Lianne La Havas, Mahalia and countless more. The festival takes place on the first weekend of July every year and offers the classic British festival camping experience, alongside a range of luxury options and day tickets.
