"There is a crack in everything...that's how the light gets in". So goes the Leonard Cohen song from which our festival gets its name. At HowTheLightGetsIn we shine a light on some of the most exciting theories, and invigorating artists of the current day.
Tucked away at the foot of the black mountains, at HowTheLightGetsIn Hay 2024 we brought together the bands you've been waiting to discover, ground-breaking ideas that have yet to make their mark. You contributed your thoughts, and danced the night away over a magical May Bank Holiday.
Join us again for HowTheLightGetsIn Hay 2025 23-26 May for a bank holiday weekend you'll never forget.
