Great things happen when people get together with a shared mission.

Everyone involved with the festival is committed to making it a success. Whatever stage you are at in your career you can gain something from the festival. It only happens once a year and now is the time to get dates booked in your diary and reserve your place.

“By getting involved in the festival you are adding value to your own professional development and to working in Leicester and Leicestershire.”
