    An eclectic range of quality acts and activities have been announced for this year’s Bradford Festival.

    Bradford’s very own multi-award-winning singer-songwriter and powerhouse of blues and rock, Chantel McGregor, will headline the opening night on Friday 12 July.

    Other acts include the winners of UK Bhangra Awards, The Harvey Sahota Band, who will bring their unique fusion of Bhangra, reggae, urban, pop and dance to Bradford’s Centenary Square.

    As well as colourful street theatre and art displays festival organisers have once again programmed a wide range of workshops and activities to give children and adults the opportunity to try out and learn a range of arts, crafts and music.
