Rich, vibrant & brand-new festivals
Showcasing national & international creative talent, supporting young & local artists
Placing culture & creativity at the heart of Worcester
Light Night
Four International and award-winning artists and organisations have been commissioned to transform city centre buildings with their large-scale light projections created specifically for Light Night Worcester 2021.
Atmosphere
Atmosphere is a Spring festival with a strong focus on the environment and the world we live in.
It is designed to spark discussion through a mix of live performances, workshops and events either inspired by the environment or with a clear message about the environment and natural world.
Same but Different
From 19-23 July we made the city and streets of Worcester just that little bit different – creating fun and playful moments throughout the week.
