International Women's Day Celebration 2026
Bristol Women's Voice International Women’s Day Celebration returns to City Hall on Saturday 7 March 2026!
Bristol Women’s Voice works to make women’s equity a reality in Bristol through campaigning, connecting and celebrating.
We hope this year's International Women's Day celebration will do all three of these things with our broad programme of events centred around the theme of Connection and Common Ground, exploring what women can achieve together and their role in promoting peace.
The day features workshops fostering community cohesion, art exhibitions in the Vestibules on Deanery Road and Park Street, and panel discussions on topics including women's inclusion in economic growth and in the workplace, tackling misogyny, mothering through challenging times finding common ground to connect communities, women and the environment, and women's health, alongside workshops on music, wellbeing, history and health.
This event is completely free and you do not need to book or reserve a ticket. All the workshop tickets listed here are only half the rooms capacity, this is to allow those wishing to attend particular workshops to book in advance.
If you would like to book a space but in advance and giving a donation is a barrier, please email us on info@bristolwomensvoice.org.uk.
We invite attendees to wear something white, symbolising unity and peace together.

Opening Performance
Poet Muneera Pilgrim will perform an ode to women’s collective power and possibility. Her poem is a powerful reflection on women’s strength in this moment; it celebrates healing, uplift, and the beauty of truly seeing one another. It honours our brilliance, shared achievements, and the hope we carry forward.
