Latest Events, Workshops & Courses, News and Opportunities
Wednesday, July 3rd

Welcome back to our fortnightly newsletter
and although the weather may be disappointing us all just now, the
great selection of summertime Festivals and events continue around
the district and they certainly won’t disappoint!
There’s lots going on at
the family-friendly Cleckheaton Folk Festival
this weekend (5-7 July) with activities, including street
entertainment, music sessions, singarounds, workshops, informal
concerts, the traditional Festival Parade and a whole lot more!
The much-loved Holmfirth Artweek
returns to Holmfirth Civic Hall this Sunday 7 July and runs until
Saturday 13 July with over 400 artists displaying their work and over
50 Fringe venues around the area with plenty more exhibitions to
see. Holmfirth Arts Festival have a couple of events in July - a
special walk “When Holmfirth Flooded”
on Saturday 6 July, which takes in some of the river route and
includes many stories from the flood day itself and the Dana Ali Band who
will be performing at Brockholes Village Hall on 17 July.
The Livefields Festival
is back at Oakwell Hall between12-14 July featuring seven of the UK's
top tribute acts, all suited to outdoor festivals who will be sure to
have the audience rocking and later in the month, coming up for the
first time on 20-21 July is the Onwards Festival 2024 ‘Through the
Valley’, a roaming musical spectacular that will
have you travelling successively through a variety of the Colne
Valley's independent music venues, experiencing live performances
from some fine bands and musicians.
Finally we would like to
mention a great opportunity from hcmf// for young people to
participate in the hcmf// Creative Summer School in
July and August which provides an excellent opportunity for them to
take part in hands-on, creative music-producing experiences led by
industry professionals
