As we’re sure you’re well aware, International Women’s Day falls on Saturday 8 March, and for this year’s celebrations, we’ll be booking our tickets to the Royal Albert Hall for the 15th anniversary of the WOW – Women of the World initiative. Now more than ever, we need to look to the future to discuss the urgent challenges that still need to be overcome and fight for the progress still to be made. This will be an evening to do just that, filled with music, joy and thought-provoking conversation to celebrate the incredible achievements of women, girls and non-binary people across the globe, with a stunning roster of speakers and performers confirmed to appear.
Legendary activist Angela Davis will be speaking alongside the likes of Annie Lennox, Jordan Stephens, Liz Carr and Sandi Toksvig, with Isobel Waller-Bridge and 11-time Grammy-nominated composer, activist and sitarist Anoushka Shankar among the musical performers in attendance, not to mention an epic 150-strong choir aged from eight to 80.
