About me
FESTIVAL.ORG is one of the UK’s leading festival and outdoor arts producing organisations. Our mission is to nurture communities through outdoor arts. We work with diverse artists and practitioners to build relationships with local people and community organisations, resulting in inclusive outdoor productions, which bring public spaces to life and engage and inspire diverse audiences. We produce the annual Greenwich+Docklands International Festival (GDIF), described in The Guardian as “an event whose annual contribution to the happiness of the people of London is unrivalled” and winner of TIme Out London’s Best Event of the Year Award in 2021. We also manage Global Streets, a national touring programme, which brings free international outdoor arts to places in which engagement in arts and culture is lower than the national average. FESTIVAL.ORG also produces year round events and projects which have recently included Borealis (2021), touring productions such as Black Victorians (2021) and consultancy projects that grow out of our pioneering work with Deaf and disabled artists and audiences, as we work towards making outdoor events more accessible to everyone
