The Radix Big Tent Ideas Festival is coming to Dean’s Park in York, 17 June 2023. This is not your typical political event, the festival offers an inspiring blend of politics, culture, and innovation.
More than just a one-time event, the Radix Big Tent Ideas Festival aims to leave a lasting impact on the host city and region. It serves as an opportunity to showcase local innovation and present fresh ideas directly to policymakers and influencers. The festival’s legacy extends to various areas, including support for local businesses through angel investors, facilitating meaningful dialogues between entrepreneurs and policymakers, fostering constructive discussions across political divides, and witnessing announcements of new funds from government ministers.
This Year’s Themes: The 2023 edition of the festival revolves around five key themes, each addressing critical issues that demand attention and action.
- Sustainable Regeneration
- Collective Imagination
- Health and Cost of Living Crisis
- Better Culture and Conversation
- Religion, Education, and Civil Society
The Radix Big Tent Ideas Festival: Regenerate offers a unique platform for individuals of all backgrounds and political affiliations to come together and drive positive change. By addressing sustainable regeneration, collective imagination, the health and cost of living crisis, better culture and conversation, and the role of religion, education, and civil society, this event strives to ignite meaningful discussions, inspire innovative solutions, and leave a lasting legacy in York and beyond.
We, at York CVS, will be there holding a stand alongside some of our supported projects: York Ending Stigma, Poverty Truth Commission and Healthwatch York, come along for a friendly welcome and conversation.
