    Episode 11: Freedom Festival '19 SPECIAL - Mikey Martins

    FREEDOM FEST 2019 SPECIAL - Mikey Martins Freedom Festival is in its 12th year, and Mikey Martins has been at the helm since 2016. It is a fixture of Hull's (and the international) cultural calendar and thrills and surprises 130,000 citizens and visitors each summer with world-class art and performance. But the world is changing and the festival has to change too, whilst retaining the soul of what began in 2007 – commemorating Wilberforce, and celebrating Hull’s independent spirit and historic contribution to the cause of freedom. Like some of the shows, it’s a careful balancing act, and Mikey tells us how him and his team try to achieve it.
