Handmade is a totally independent music and arts festival live in the city of Leicester in the UK.

For one weekend a year we take over the city and fill it with awesome things. Music, comedy, art and photography. They endeavour to bring the best national and international performers to the city and present them alongside awesome talent from the East Midlands.

The people behind Handmade have been putting on shows for decades, working tirelessly to bring great things to the city of Leicester. The next logical step was to create an arts festival Leicester could really be proud of.
