29% Festival - Bradford 2025

Описание: 29% Festival is Common/Wealth's annual festival celebrating Bradford's young people & young artists.

We commissioned over 100 artists under 25 from Bradford. Young DJs, rappers, drag artists, musicians, poets and more performed to a sold-out audience of over 400 people at Bradford Arts Centre, and led creative workshops.

29% Festival is all about getting young, working class artists paid, professional work, creative control, and a chance to connect with other young artists.

We also recruited a Youth Board of 11 young people from across the Bradford District who supported us in curating and programming the festival - reflecting what young people of Bradford really want to see and do.

2025's festival was held on Friday 28 & Saturday 29 November at Bradford Arts Centre. Supported by @Bradford_2025
