About Halifax Festival:
The Halifax Festival began life in 2007 as The July Project, a festival for the children and young people in Calderdale. The event was hugely successful with over 35,000 children turning up, tuning in and taking part. This video was recorded during the 2009 festival which will give you a flavour of what we have achieved and a feeling for what we would like to do:

The organising committee for The July Project met soon after the 2009 event and began to consider the route forward. They decided that they wanted to move the date to August and open the event out to everyone not just the children and young people of Calderdale.
