It is the first time Hastings has held this international event (World Car Free Day website), a car free day on the same day around the world, which I first experienced getting on for 20 years ago when I was visiting my brother when he lived in Brussels, except in Brussels it is car free for the whole city and region! In Hastings, it is just to be for 12 noon until 6pm, with a street party and other events, but the seafront road will be closed from 10am until 8pm on Sunday, from Warrior Square Gardens to the White Rock Theatre (Eversfield Place to Verulam Place - website).
This event is part of the Sustainability on Sea Festival (21-29 September 2019, for more details see website), a 9 day festival featuring events from Winchelsea to Bexhill. On Sunday, for the Hastings Car Free Day, there will be a range of family friendly activities, including alfresco dining, music, dancing, and much more to enjoy!
