We have recruited a Youth Board of 11 young people from across the Bradford District who will be working with us on a freelance basis to curate and programme the festival.

Applications for programming and commission opportunities are open!

Firstly, we’re looking for young creatives under the age of 21 with pre-existing, short acts to perform in either our Cabaret Event (any art form) or Youth Music Night for a fee of £50. We are interested in hearing from young people interested in theatre, music, dance, visual art, photography, film making, comedy, drag, writing, and also young people interested in delivering workshops as part of the festival.

We’re also launching paid Commission opportunities up to £500, for under 21s to create new, longer acts across any art form and as part of this, we are encouraging new collaborations, especially across art forms.
