One Month Countdown Begins: #LIFI24 set to Ignite Conversations and Inspire Audiences

September 2, 2024

We are just one month away from transforming Leeds Playhouse into a hub of dynamic dialogue and thought-provoking debate. As anticipation builds, the festival is thrilled to announce that one of its main events has been upgraded to a larger venue due to unprecedented demand. This year’s edition has already sold over 90% of tickets, reflecting the city’s eagerness to engage with some of the most pressing issues of our time.

Venue Upgrade

“We’re all neurodiverse ain’t we?” will now take place in the Quarry Theatre, same time, same day, just more room. This panel will challenge us all to embrace, celebrate, and advocate for inclusion and empowerment. Featuring a powerhouse lineup—Christine McGuinness, Ellie Middleton, Dr. Alice Siberry, Doddz, and Tumi Sotire—this discussion promises to be a standout moment of the festival.

Grab the last few remaining tickets now. Still undecided? Watch our film below.
