The festival is managed by the team at RainbowBiz, a social enterprise based locally in Flintshire who run volunteer projects locally including “Flintshire Flicks” pop up community cinema. The new annual festival aims to embrace culture and diversity through world music, food and the arts. As well as main performance areas there will be a Diversity Village and a well-being and information area sponsored by Unity Civil Celebrancy which will promote different aspects of health, belief and public information. Organisers are also working with local authorities to co-ordinate a colourful parade through the streets of North Wales.
The festival site is located in and around the Civic Hall in Connah’s Quay and there are a number of fully accessible public buildings and parking facilities which are being looked at to be fully utilised during the bank holiday weekend event.
The main “Diversity Village” area and connecting paths are on hard standing allowing ease of passage for pedestrians, families with push chairs and people who are wheelchair users, making it a very accessible event.
