WOW is the world’s biggest, most comprehensive festival celebrating women, girls, and non-binary people. Over three days, WOW’s line-up of world-class speakers, activists, musicians, and comedians generate life-changing conversations, incredible performances, and interactive workshops.
This year’s line-up includes Candice Brathwaite, Bridget Christie, Patrisse Cullors, Angela Davis, Elizabeth Day, Bernardine Evaristo, Deborah Frances-White, Natalie Haynes, Jude Kelly, Marian Keyes, Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan, Warsan Shire, Pandora Sykes, Lisa Taddeo, and Grace Victory.
With the pandemic having set back the progress of gender equality, 2022’s festival takes a close look at the state of gender equality across the world. It also sees the return of WOW Speed Mentoring, WOW Bites, WOW Big Ideas, and the WOW Marketplace.
Day tickets are now available for three packed events on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in the Royal Festival Hall. Each three-hour event will feature a different line-up of talks, performances, panel discussions, debates, and more, so you can book to come to all three or attend just one. Each evening, you can choose from stand-alone ticketed events featuring incredible speakers, performers, and more.
WOW 2022 also features a programme of stand-alone ticketed events and a digital programme to be announced later this year.
