Handmade Festival

Handmade Festival is a totally independent music and arts festival, taking place from 29th April (Friday ) to 1st May (Sunday) in the city of Leicester.

With the aim to find the best new and forward thinking music, comedy, art, film, performance and photography and bring it all together for one weekend.

The festival is curated by some of the city’s best loved independent venues and promoters, all of whom have been involved in putting on events for decades, working tirelessly to bring great things to Leicester. We wanted to create an arts festival the city could really be proud of together.

|The festival is being headlined by three amazing acts this year:

We Are Scientists -Friday, April 29th
Death Havana – Saturday, April 30th
Swim Deep – Sunday, May 1st
