Based in Hitchin, Rhythms of the World is a registered charity set up to unite communities through the Arts. We achieve this by organising an annual festival of music, dance and cuisine from 'around the World and round the corner' and by running an Outreach Programme which takes the ethos and energy of the festival out to groups that might not otherwise experience it. Our Outreach Programme involves the elderly, children and young people and those with disabilities and special needs. The Festival attracts up to 30,000 people over one weekend to experience 125 acts across six stages. Companies get involved with Rhythms of the World for a number of reasons: - Brand awareness; get your brand in front of up to 30,000 people at the festival and tens of thousands more through our website and social media - Corporate social responsibility; we are a registered charity and offer lots of volunteering opportunities for your staff - Ticket price; corporate support means we are able to keep the ticket price as low as possible and therefore the event remains accessible to everyone. We aim to celebrate our World culture and give a focus for people of all ages, races, abilities and economic diversity to come together. The charity is led by volunteers who feel passionate about their local community and the Arts. They freely offer their time, support, experience, knowledge and enthusiasm.
