The Commoners Ball - the family friendly ‘ball for all’ - is returning once again to the Midland Hotel.

The glitzy event will mark the end of Intercultured Festival 2023 - showcasing locally and nationally renowned artists including Inder Goldfinger and Silverfinger Singh.

It is an opportunity to meet local refugee families, festival artists and organisers and dress to impress.

There will be food and a mix of non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks.

Other acts include Sistajam - made up of female musicians, singers and songwriters from Hebden Bridge - and Kauser Mukhtar, a South Asain singer and community worker.

People can also buy 'pay it forward' tickets for refugees to attend.

The Commoners Ball is part of Bradford's annual Intercultured Festival, founded by Mussarat Rahman, an artist and Biasan’s cultural co-ordinator.

Intercultured Festival will run from October 18 to October 28, offering 10 days of free and ‘pay as you feel’ workshops and conversations.

Taking place at seven venues across Bradford, you can try your hand at lantern making, poetry, textiles, or discover eye-opening perspectives at talks.

You can learn how to cook Palestianian and Iranian dishes with local refugee chefs Asil and Sehab or taste simple Chinese dishes with refugee cook and host, Hui Hi Jie.
