ArtsFest will present around 600 performing, visual and digital artists showcases alongside other festival favourites including Classical Fantasia and KerrangFest. The event happens in various venues in Birmingham's city centre.

All events are completely free to attend which means that you can see ballet to Bhangra, dub poetry to indie rock, without having to spend any money or queue for hours for tickets! Now you can’t get much better than a free festival and what’s more, as an urban festival - it comes without mud! Whatever your age or whatever you’re into there is something at ArtsFest for everybody.

ArtsFest features performances, workshops, exhibitions, arts markets, installations, talks and screenings across the performing, visual and digital arts genres. The festival is open to artists and performers of all abilities and any art form to apply and allows artists and performers the chance to showcase their work and develop new audiences.
