Out of the Ordinary Festival

From 2007 to 2013 it celebrated the autumn equinox in England with a variety of live music,[2] talks and workshops, performances, activities for children with green and ethical businesses, many powered by solar panels and wind generators.

[4] The Out of the Ordinary business was started by Stuart Mason and his partner Emily in 2007 on the Sussex Downs near the vale of the Long Man of Wilmington.

This included yoga, meditation, alternative healing and the chance to use a variety of telescopes, a planetarium and laser guided tours of the constellations.

Notable speakers include Professor Gordon Hillman, Jonathan Cainer, Andy Thomas, Edmund Marriage, Leo Rutherford and Robert Bauval.

In 2011, the site had a new, simplified layout comprising the four elements, though still paying tribute to the seven chakras that defined its inner workings.
