Bradford 2025 is a celebration of Bradford, its cultures and its people. Artists, schools and community groups are helping us present a year of culture that could only happen right here, right now.

Bradford is one of the UK’s youngest cities, with more than a quarter of its population under the age of 20. We’re making sure that young people are central to Bradford 2025.

At the same time, we’re investing in cultural organisations across the district to enable more people, both residents and visitors, to access and participate in cultural activities during 2025 and beyond.

Do Your Thing Awards

We’ve teamed up with Creative Lives to support over 50 local organisations through the Do Your Thing Awards.
