Springboard - Brighton & Hove Performing Arts Festival - provides a unique platform for Music and Drama students to perform in a friendly and encouraging environment.

Springboard 2012  has finished for this year. Thanks to everyone concerned for making it the most successful Festival ever. Dates and plans for 2013 will be here shortly.

 "Springboard offers a warm hearted structure through which it is possible to appreciate what can be achieved by sheer determination. Appreciation of artistic endeavour, and the making of Music and Drama, is a vital and intensely personal part of the extraordinary phenomenon that is the human being. As a race we may do some terrible things to one another, but the sensitivity and artistry encouraged by activities such a Springboard must bring hope and inspiration for the best that we may aspire to."

Professor Gavin Henderson CBE
