Two months on, we’re taking a moment to reflect on IncludFEST 2025. It was a day packed with performances, workshops, and drop-in activities, where we came together to celebrate creativity and inclusivity.
The festival wouldn’t have been possible without the performers, artists, production and sound teams, volunteers, and staff who brought the event to life. Each of them played an important part in making the day run smoothly and ensuring everyone could enjoy the activities.
The event summary gives a full overview of everything that happened, some reflections on our evaluation results, and some thoughts about what we might do differently next time. Click here to read the Event Summary
You can also find our official film below by Zemap, which captures the atmosphere and energy of the day, giving a real sense of what it was like to be part of IncludFEST 2025.
Thanks to Durham County Council for their ongoing support for IncludFEST.
