  • Hello! Welcome to UpRise 2011

    UpRise takes to the streets with 'Community Is Home', featuring 14 interesting and unusual just waiting to be explored. This years festival aims to encourage us to look at our community and our planet as Home, for that is what it is.

    The festival features not only music, art, comedy and film, but also debates, discussions, storytelling, talks and walks - and some interesting surprises!

    Pick up a trail map from one of the festival hosts and feel free to ask them where the garden, roof, or balcony is! Follow your chosen trail and explore what community means to you.

    UpRise is a free festival for all the family with plenty to see and do, so come and visit 'Community Is Home' and help us show that we are one community made up of many, and sharing our experiences is something worth celebrating!
