Northern Man Festival

A new festival putting men’s issues centre stage in Leeds and showcasing work by men’s groups from under-represented areas of the City. Co-produced by The Orion Partnership (Space2, Zest, Feel Good Factor and Shantona Women’s Centre) and Leeds Playhouse. Offered a lively and interactive space to talk about men’s health and well-being in addition to performances, arts activities, and a ‘booted and suited’ area where men were treated to free clothing and haircuts whilst being serenaded by a local barber-shop choir.
