Founded in 1998, the Liverpool Arab Arts Festival (LAAF) is the UK’s longest-running annual Arab arts and culture festival, platforming the best UK and international Arab artists.
Every July, the festival brings a thrilling celebration of Arab culture to venues across the city and showcases the richness of Arab culture through a curated programme of visual art, music, dance, film, theatre, literature and digital events.
The Liverpool Arab Arts Festival’s work continues throughout the year, however, with a wide range of events and participatory projects that bring together artists and diverse communities. LAAF builds connections that help more people to encounter and experience Arab culture in Liverpool and beyond.
