Long Man of Wilmington is located on the steep slopes of Windover Hill and is one of the two human hill figures in England. The Long Man is 227 feet (69 metres) tall, designed to look proportional when viewed from below. The origin of the Long Man remains hazy. Originally, the earliest record of the carving was in a drawing done by William Burrell when he visited Wilmington Priory..

Gus Christie, son of Sir George Christie and grandson of festival founder John Christie, became festival chairman in 2000.

Notorious as a location for suicide attempts, Beachy Head is a chalk headland close to the town of Eastbourne. The highest chalk sea cliff in Britain, it rises to 530ft (162m) above sea-level and allows views of the coast from Dungeness in the east to Selsey Bill in the west. The chalk was formed in the Cretaceous period 65 million years ago, when the area was under the sea. Much of the grandeur of the cliffs was lost in 2001 when, after a winter of heavy rains, its main distinguishing feature, a chalk pinnacle known as the the Devil's Chimney, collapsed into the sea.
