BRADFORD 2025 AND CULTURAL VOICE SOCIAL
Sunday 28 May, 5pm onwards
Bradford 2025 and Bradford Cultural Voice are inviting our friends in the cultural sector to an evening of celebration marking one year since that epic moment in City Park last year when Bradford was awarded the UK City of Culture 2025.
We’re delighted that we’ll be joined by an international delegation visiting Bradford as part of the Be:Cultour programme, hosted by Julia Calver and Saltaire Inspired, who are visiting Bradford to meet those involved in community-led projects. This, we hope, will be the start of many more visits from international guests to the district!
We hope you’ll join us to celebrate our collective successes as a sector in winning the City of Culture Bid and as we look forward to exciting times ahead for arts, heritage and culture here in Bradford.
Come join us for an evening of networking and live music, performances, food and drinks. There'll be a chance to meet the new Bradford Cultural Voice Forum co-chairs Vicky Clifton and Richard Dunbar and hear the latest on Bradford 2025 from Dan Bates and Shanaz Gulzar.
Dress Code: Come as you are.
RSVP is essential -
