WOW - Women of the World Festival

WOW is a festival of talks, debates, music, film, comedy and activism that celebrates women and girls and takes a frank look at what stops them from achieving their potential.

Based on the premise that an equal world is a better world for all of us, WOW is a celebration not only of women and girls but of equality in all its forms.

Since WOW was founded in 2010 at Southbank Centre, London, it has become a rapidly expanding global movement with festivals taking place on five continents from Pakistan to Finland, and New York to Sydney. Hull will be the latest city to host a festival.

For women, girls, boys and men WOW Hull is a place to inspire, interrogate and bring about change.

Presented in partnership with Southbank Centre, London.
