How very exciting!Today, we’ve announced that Coventry’s City of Culture programme will start in May 2021 and run for 12 months. Starting on May 2021 allows us to deliver on our key promise to the city and region - to deliver an extraordinary year while providing some much needed certainty and resources to our artists and communities.

The decision has been taken in partnership with Coventry City Council and the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport with the full backing of our partners.

This news also comes with an announcement of the first event details for our year as UK City of Culture. Nigel Jamieson and Justine Themen will be co-directing a huge event that the entire city is invited to take part in.
