Festivals

OF MORLEY

Themed "Respair" - a rarely-used English word meaning the return of hope after a period of despair - the 2021 festival echoes both the themes of seven decades ago, and the current zeitgeist as we move into the next phase of our recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic.

The 11th annual Waterloo Festival celebrates arts, heritage and community.
