The first ever WOW Festival in the north-east of England will be packed with unmissable talks and performances, celebrating achievements and stories from women, girls, and non-binary people from the region and beyond.

Following in the footsteps of WOW Festivals that have taken place around the world in 45 locations from Rio to Karachi, there'll be a special programme for local schools on Friday, followed by a day-long WOW Festival on Saturday, featuring big ideas from incredible women, family fun and more. Everyone is welcome.

WOW North East is part of the S&DR200 Festival
