Every Thursday 3- 4 p.m.

Diversity Fest promotes mutual respect and co-operation between all people through creativity: music, dance, spoken word and art.

Bringing together different communities to celebrate unity for we have more in common than things that divide us.

All communities, all genders, all sexualities, all ethnicities, all ages, all abilities, altogether.

Diversity Fest showcases performances from people who are under represented in community events especially women, and people from the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) and BAME (Black, Asian & Minority Ethnic) communities, people with disablities and Children & Young People.

Our radio show will represent a wide cross section of the global community in terms of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, age and abilities.

Our guest interviews and the music and spoken word we play will similarly come from a diverse range of communities.

We feature a very wide range of music including Asian, Classical, Reggae, Americana, Blues, Jazz, African, Latin, Soul, Funk, Folk and Rock.

If you’d like to be a guest on the show (or pre-record an interview) please email Trevor at diversityfestradio@sheffieldlive.org
