This year, FACT are celebrating 20 years of our award-winning arts centre on Wood Street. Back in 2003, FACT was Liverpool’s first purpose-built arts centre for more than 60 years. It was a landmark moment for the city and the UK, giving moving image and digital art a place to expand, experiment and be embraced by visitors from all over the world.
As part of our weekend of celebrations, we're thrilled to present a day of back-to-back talks featuring individuals who share a close connection with FACT, followed by a screening of the latest film from Mandela8. Join us for these insightful conversations that not only reflect on our rich history but also look ahead to a vibrant and innovative future.
While we celebrate the incredible journey of the past two decades, we eagerly anticipate the exciting chapters that lie ahead—for us, for you, and for our ever-expanding community of artists and creatives.
Free tickets for individual events can be booked. Please book a ticket for each event you would like to attend. Capacity is limited so if you can no longer attend an event, please get in touch with us as soon as possible.
