So what a weekend that was! We hope that you had the chance to get out and about and see some of the amazing creative shows and artists events that were across the city this weekend. There are too many people to thank here - but without our sponsors, venues, artists, supporters and volunteers, it wouldn’t be the great weekend it was. Looking forward to already!
