Performers for Refugee Week Celebrations in the UK
Every year, communities across the UK come together to celebrate Refugee Week, a nationwide festival honouring the contributions, creativity, and resilience of refugees. One of the best ways to bring people together during these events is through live music and performance, which fosters cultural exchange, storytelling, and a sense of community.
At Find a Performer, we’re proud to have supported charities, councils, and community groups in booking performers for Refugee Week celebrations across the UK. From intimate local gatherings to large-scale events, we help organisers showcase the incredible talent of artists from refugee communities and beyond.
Why Live Music Matters for Refugee Week
Live performance creates a unique connection between artists and audiences. Music, dance, and storytelling highlight diverse cultural traditions and provide a platform for refugees to share their heritage. This makes Refugee Week celebrations more engaging, inclusive, and memorable for everyone involved.
