Young performers in Bradford will soon have the chance to step into the spotlight.
Darley Street Market will host its first under-18s Open Mic Night on Friday, June 19, 2026, from 6pm to 8pm, giving young people a platform to showcase their talents.
A Bradford Markets spokesperson said: “Whether you sing, rap, dance, perform poetry, play music, or have another talent to share, we’d love to see you perform in the Street Kitchen at Darley Street Market.”
The event will take place on the stage at Darley Street Kitchen, with performance slots allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Hosted by Rosie Doonan (Shipley Kidz Choir and member of Birdy and Peter Gabriel’s touring bands), the evening promises a welcoming and supportive atmosphere.
