IncludFEST 2021: Final report now available – CLICK HERE TO OPEN


For 2021 IncludFEST returned to Ushaw Historic House, Chapel and Gardens in Durham!! This year,  audience members were invited to come and enjoy a one hour performance event in the beautiful setting of Ushaw College Courtyard. This outdoor space was exclusively for our event and was headlined as the ‘best outdoor arts the region has to offer from the safety and comfort of an individual gazebo for your group, a bit like having your own private box at the theatre (but outside!).’

IncludFEST 2020: Making it a (virtual) reality
Although our plans for a live festival this year were not meant to be (see our cancellation statement further down the page), we are delighted to bring you two film versions of IncludFEST 2020 – both featuring optional subtitles and one with full British Sign Language interpretation throughout.
