The Hunslet Festival AGM takes place on Thursday 26 September 2024 at 7pm at the Involve Centre (Whitfield Avenue, Hunslet, LS10 2QE) and the organisers would welcome input from local residents or community stakeholders.
This year’s Festival was the first event arranged by a new team of organisers who have tried hard to build on the strong foundations laid here from an established event whilst freshening up the occasion with some new ideas. You can read more about the successful 2024 event here.
The AGM will be a chance to hear from the team as they report on this year’s activity and share initial ideas for the next event.
Hunslet Festival 2025 is set for Saturday 16 June, 11:30am-4pm. Book it in your diary!
We are keen to get more local people involved in organising future events.
Do YOU have any time, skills or ideas that could help make good things happen for this wonderful community? There is a range of roles and opportunities to get involved with to match whatever time you have available. You will work as part of supportive team – it also a great way to do your part in helping the Hunslet community. You will also have plenty of fun along the way!
Newly appointed Committee Chair Ben Hutchinson says:
“I love this event and I love this community. Hunslet Festival is a great celebration of all the talent and qualities Hunslet holds. There are great foundations here and the potential to evolve the Festival over the upcoming years is massive.
“I’m sure there are other individuals or local organisations out there who are excited by this opportunity. If this is you please, please, please get in touch! It would be great to hear from you!”
