The churches of Bradford are throwing a Pentecost Party at The Beacon – and everyone’s invited.

There’ll be performances from different church groups around the city, including music, song, dance, drama and spoken word. And we’ll even be joined by the Bishop of Bradford, the Right Reverend Toby Howarth.

The party is open to people of all faiths and none, and it’s free – no need to book, just drop into The Beacon in Bowling Park to join the celebration.
