From 16th to 26th September 2021

The Peace Festival will be held on-line.

The Peace Festival will include: exhibitions, talks, discussions, workshops, films, music and entertainment and children’s activities. Parallel online events will include short films, videos, speakers and discussion forums.

The exhibition will remain in place for nine days and be open to the public with events each day, as a celebration of peace. All groups with an interest in peace, in any of its manifestations, are invited to set up a display or stall at a minimal cost. This will be an opportunity for new connections to be made and new initiatives to arise. Please join us in helping plan and shape this important event.
