Refugee Week is the world’s largest arts and culture festival celebrating the contributions, resilience, and creativity of refugees. Each year, thousands of independently organised events take place globally. Explore what’s happening near you by browsing through the calendar below.

Refugee Week is an open platform & everyone is invited to get involved. You can support local events, take part in Simple Acts, or even host your own activity!
