Imagine! is Belfast’s latest festival focusing on politics and ideas running from 9 – 15 March and features 37 events throughout 12 venues across Belfast, supported by 20 partner organisations.

Imagine! Belfast Festival of Politics & ideas is a week-long series of events aimed at engaging people in political/cultural discussion and debate in the broadest sense. The festival seeks to cover a wide spectrum of issues including, but certainly not limited to, mainstream political debate.

Created to encourage participation from people not normally involved in politics, the festival aims to stimulate a discussion on new cultural and political ideas through talks, theatre, workshops, film, humour and lively debate.

Organised on a voluntary basis, the festival is not aligned with any political party or particular interest group and does not receive any government or corporate funding.

Hi, I'm Laura. I'm 30 years old and have a degree in Journalism with Photo-Imaging at the University of Ulster. I have an undying love for Belfast and all that it has to offer, an undying love for sleeping, Tegan and Sara, trashy tv shows, foreign snack-foods and being irresponsible with money. I also quite like origami, reading, jazz, hip-hop, dubstep, anything acoustic and Food Network TV. I've written for The Big List, Culture NI, Chatterbox and The Echo, as well as writing for BBC Across the Line.
