About
The Migrant Festival celebrates the contribution made by refugees and migrants to Birmingham and the UK, whilst bearing witness to the hardships and sacrifices involved.
The 2021 festival will comprise digital and live events including performances by musicians curated by Celebrating Sanctuary; our annual Soapbox event featuring quick-fire presentations from individuals and groups supporting migrants in the Midlands; and a day long symposium about the Blk Art Group and religion, organised to coincide with Ikon’s exhibition A Very Special Place: Ikon in the 1990s.
