Wakefield

Our time to shine…

Our Year – Wakefield District 2024 was a year-long project which brought events and activities to everyone in the Wakefield District. With communities at its heart, it was Our Year to try something new!

With 366 days of activities, Our Year encouraged more people to visit putting Wakefield on the map. For residents it was a chance to explore all the amazing things happening on their own doorsteps.

Looking back at Our Year 2024...

This Was Our Year

Our Place

2024 was Our Year. Together, we found Our Place.

Our Year showed us that culture is connection.

It’s the threads that tie us together across the whole Wakefield District. It is in Our Place, our towns and villages, our city centre and our parks, our nature reserves and our canals and rivers too. And it’s happening everywhere you look.

Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to hear about the amazing events, activities and opportunities you can enjoy in Our Place.

Our Funders

Together with our partners we created 366 days of culture and creativity for everyone across the Wakefield District as part of Our Year 2024.

A huge thank you to our funders, sponsors and LEAP club members for all their support!
