The citywide Birmingham Disability Festival taking place this year at Aston University on Saturday 5th July 2025 12pm til 6pm.
We have loads of fantastic activities, performances, interactive workshops and games / sports and spotlight on Human Books planned for the day .
People that attended our first ever citywide disability festival last year shared with us some amazing feedback that enables us to keep pulling together to bring this festival back to Birmingham each year.
Some of the comments shared last year with us included the following:-
'Fantastic day and can't wait for next year'
'Thank you - I have never felt so seen and included'
'Please do this every year'
'The Disability Festival 2024 was the best event I volunteered at last year and I cannot wait to be there this year'.
That is what we want to make sure is done and is shown every single year for each and every single one of us.
