The crown jewel of Creative Heritage is the Around the World Festival. This is a big event aiming to showcase and celebrate various world cultures through music, dance, drama and other performing arts. The first edition of the ATW Festival was in June 2023 at the Cryer Arts theatre. The show featured over 60 performers of different ages and 12 world cultures, who all call the borough of Sutton their home. In 2024 we doubled the acts, the performers and the audience. The event was incredibly well received for its positive impact on promoting unity and local diversity. It generated interest from the local council and thanks to its success, our team was able to secure funding for more cultural events and the next edition of the festival.
