From comedy to classical music, folk to family workshops, recent past performers at Lichfield Festival and Lichfield Literature have included Tony Hadley, Kate Rusby, The Unthanks, Mark Watson, the BBC Concert Orchestra, BBC National Orchestra Wales, KT Tunstall, Grimethorpe Colliery Band, Nitin Sawhney, Eddi Reader, Mica Paris, Bobby Seagull, the London Community Gospel Choir, Alison Weir, Tracy Borman, Paterson Joseph and Justin Webb.

Lichfield Festival seeks an enthusiastic and dynamic Learning & Participation (L&P) Producer to lead on the delivery of its creative engagement programmes. Working two days per week (average), the L&P Producer will develop and manage a range of community-facing projects that broaden access to the arts, inspire creativity, and foster intergenerational understanding.

The role includes producing the Festival’s Learning & Participation strands, including youth development, schools work, community projects, and intergenerational initiatives, while also supporting the delivery of the wider Festival as an Assistant Producer during peak activity periods.
