About
Bloomsbury is a fascinating place, with an extraordinarily rich history as well as a contemporary and diverse cultural community.
Over one extraordinary weekend, the Festival offers a taster of the amazing cultural life of this beautiful area of central London.
The Festival is run on the principle that places are at their best when people work together, and culture is shared by all. It brings together the diverse range of people who live and work here and shares their creative ethos with all who visit.
The Festival celebrates contemporary Bloomsbury: a thriving place of pioneering ideas, creative experimentation, international collaboration, and beautiful public spaces. We are proud to continue traditions of social inclusivity and creative exploration which have flourished in the area for centuries.
The Festival programme is generated by organisations and individuals based in the area; the range of beautiful and significant work that takes place here year-round is extraordinary and we are proud to work with such a wide range of inspiring people.
