Doorstep Discoveries

Welcome to the Doorstep Discoveries page! This is your guide to all the amazing things happening right on your doorstep in the Wakefield district.

And this time, it’s better than ever, because Doorstep Discoveries is the programme for Our Year 2024 – so you can find out all about the incredible things taking place as part of the year of culture, all over the Wakefield district.

Featuring excellent exhibitions, amazing events, fantastic festivals, and lots more, it’s a deep dive into local places, a great way to find fun things to do close to home, and a guide to 366 days of culture for everyone, everywhere.
