Our Main Festival takes place every June to coincide with Refugee Week.
Each year, our 2 week festival programme is curated in collaboration with a variety of individuals, organisations and community groups. It brings together a diverse programme of arts, cultural, educational, and community events that celebrate inclusion and connection.
We invite partners to submit ideas for events and prioritise events that are refugee-led and have involved refugees from conception to delivery.
Bristol Refugee Festival 2026 will take place from 6th – 21st June.
This year’s theme is “Courage.”
Submissions form: https://forms.gle/NZWctNMzD1cJg8KN8
Deadline: Wednesday 1st April – CLOSED
