Upcoming events.
Outside/Inside Festival
Outside/Inside Festival is created to raise awareness and support the incredible creative, enrichment activities taking place at The Bridge Homelessness to Hope Charity in Leicester. Through funds raised from previous events (£5000 approx.) we have been able to buy musical instruments and recording equipment that have enabled a music project where we have formed a collective of people making music and performing original material around the city. This is about empowerment through creative expression with the core value that mere existence or survival is not enough! It is vital to pursue our dreams and have our voice heard and your money is changing lives.
The festival will take place over the weekend of November 16th/17th at Firebug and Duffys Bar featuring over 30 acts of multiple genres bringing you Leicester’s most diverse city centre indoor festival.
Sunday features a range of stalls and activities for kids as part of our family friendly event including happy hour discounts on selected food and beverages when purchasing a weekend ticket.
Children under the age of 14 will be admitted free of charge. All children under the age of 18 will need to be accompanied by an adult.
