Renowned for its world-class reputation regionally and all across the UK and Europe, Hull’s Freedom Festival returns in 2023 with an exhilarating five-day program.

We encourage everyone, whether you have attended before or not, to pen the dates into the diary and pop along to enjoy what we have on offer. You certainly won’t be disappointed.”
