INTRODUCTION We are delighted to present the 2022 Greater New Lodge Community Festival programme. The Greater New Lodge Community Festival is where we as a community come together to celebrate and showcase our culture, traditions and talent in a positive, welcoming programme of activities and events. The 2022 festival programme is a mix of, theatre, family fun days, workshops, exhibitions, lectures, street parties, debates, sports events, film shows, literature, and much, much more. We hope that the diversity of the programme contains something of interest for everyone. We wish to highlight and thank Feile An Phobail and Belfast City Council, for their continued support. The Festival organising committee would like to congratulate everyone, especially local community groups, and residents who have all volunteered their time and energy to make this year’s festival happen.
