From the mills to the hills
We’re taking culture right across Bradford District in 2025.
Bradford is a landscape of amazing variety – and we’ll be roaming from city to country all year long.
Bradford District covers some 141 square miles, from industrial heritage to remote rural beauty. We’ll be highlighting the astonishing diversity of this landscape and its people – creating new artworks for places and spaces across Bradford, and bringing new audiences to our wonderful corner of the world.
We announced the first events on our district-wide programme in September 2024, and there’s much more to come. Be the first to hear about new shows, events and activities across Bradford District by signing up to our free mailing list.
