Southampton is bidding to become the UK City of Culture 2025 and we are thrilled to invite you to hear from the diverse voices of our community. You will hear what ‘City of Culture’ means for our city, through the experiences and aspirations of our key-note speakers.

Join us on Tuesday 15 February as we bring together a panel of guests to celebrate Southampton’s rich, diverse, and inclusive culture. Together, they will discuss Southampton’s City of Culture 2025 ambitions, the bid journey so far, and the importance of our city’s partnerships and diverse communities. You will also have the opportunity to put your questions direct to our panel.
