Celebrate International Women’s Day at The Riverfront!
Each March we celebrate International Women’s day at The Riverfront with some fantastic free performances and taster sessions all with a female focus. International Women’s Day 2025 takes place on 8 March 2025 and this year the theme is #AccelerateAction.
On Saturday 8 March from 10am – 4pm we will be hosting our annual International Women’s Day event. Throughout the day there will be performances from celebrated musicians, community groups and panel discussions from inspiring local women. Delicious refreshments and food will be available to enjoy whilst meeting and chatting with like-minded people.
There are also opportunities for children and adults to craft and create, as well as a range of creative, expressive workshops to take part in.
Guests are welcome to stay all day and enjoy a variety of events or come and go at their own leisure. All events, which will run from 10am-4pm, are free, and no booking is required!
Our website and social media pages will be updated regularly with more information and a timetable will be published closer to the event date.

What does International Women's Day mean to you?
We asked our collegaues, friends, supporters and partners what International Women's Day means to them. Here are some of their responses:
''International Women's Day means celebrating all of us, in all our different experiences of womanhood, equally. It means recognizing the love and beauty in us all!''
Krystal Lowe, Artist.
''International Women’s Day is an important opportunity to celebrate, support and empower women around the globe. It is a good time to reflect on progress that has been achieved and consider what still needs to be done.''
Gemma Durham, Head of Theatre and Arts at Newport Live.
