The Octagon's Awaaz programme

Bolton Octagon's Awaaz programme will launch in February 2025 and will include events across the year, including a series of workshops, activities, events, play readings and research and development projects.

Full details of the programme have yet to be announced, but some taster workshops are already on sale, including yoga, embroidery, tabla drumming and Bollywood dance, priced at £3 per session.

The full programme will include special celebration events for Holi and Eid, activities for MACFest—an annual festival that celebrates Muslim arts and culture—and family activities for World Book Day as well as other workshops and taster sessions.
