Coventry’s diverse cultural scene is set to be given its biggest ever showcase at this year’s Coventry Godiva Festival.

As part of the bid for UK City of Culture in 2021, one of the festival tents will be dedicated to Coventry’s art and culture on Sunday, July 3, with a host of performances throughout the day in order to give festival goers a flavour of the outstanding talent the city has to offer.

And local artists, groups and performers are being urged to put themselves forward to be part of the day.

Advent helped to organise this dramatic shot to help launch the call-out which has attracted media interest from across the region.

The deadline for proposals is Monday, 9 May at 9am. The application form and further information can be downloaded from http://www.coventry2021.co.uk/
