We had a fantastic morning with National Centre for Writing for the re-opening of Dragon Hall. The 15th century timber building holds so many stories and is now open to be explored weekly from Sunday - Wednesday. There are free spaces to rent for writing and a full programme of exciting events and courses in the coming months. 📚 Thanks for having us!

FESTIVAL RECAP | Mosh⁠ Sponsored by Artlist ⁠ 'This is the thrill of fighting another human, without the fear. This is a dance, a gig, a theatrical shove into the heart of the pit. This is the meaning behind the chaos' ⁠ ⁠ We were lucky enough to have Rachel Nibhraonain's MOSH join us in May for three nights of Energy, Mayhem, Humour and Nostalgia. The show takes a deep dive into the sub culture of Moshing and invites audiences to revel in the community connected through music and risk.⁠ ⁠ Did you catch this show? What did you think? 📷 @lukewitcombphoto

FESTIVAL RECAP | COROZÓN⁠ ⁠ 🎪 Commissioned by Norfolk & Norwich Festival, Circolombia invited you to experience Corazón (Heart). A fun-fuelled circus concert, packed with breathless feats, gravity-defying performance.⁠ ⁠ Colombia is the land of a thousand rhythms. Vibrant, passionate and pulsating with energy. The acclaimed Circolombia – graduates of Fundación Circo Para Todos, a circus school dedicated to working with underprivileged youth – transported you to the bustling heart of Colombia for a show that shared the nation’s wealth of culture, energy and diversity. ⁠ ⁠ ✨️ We hosted lots of Sponsors at Corozón this year, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did ✨️ ⁠

Some great opportunities with us here at Norfolk & Norwich Festival! If you'd like an informal chat with me about the Festival Connect & Create Senior Manager or Community Filmmaker post, do get in touch: anna.mccarthy@nnfestival.org.uk
