Overview

Derry/Londonderry made history in July 2010 after winning its bid to be the first ever UK City of Culture in 2013.

Through Culture for All we want to provide opportunities for communities across Northern Ireland to engage with, and share in these celebrations.

You can apply to Culture for All if you are:
