In June 2022 we mark the second year that OneFest has been supported by Arts Council England to bring you culture, comedy and creativity. OneFest is a week-long arts and culture festival held across Mansfield and Ashfield that has the primary aim of smashing the stigma and segregation learning disabled and autistic people face on a societal level. In general, learning disabled and autistic people are at best infantilised and at worst ostracised, so we seek to counter this by setting Mansfield and Ashfield alight for a week of culture, partying and a carnival of neurodiverse creative expression.

OneFest gives the learning disabled and autistic the chance to be out, loud and proud and the rest of the community surprise themselves by getting alongside those guys and enjoying it! The line-up is rich with high profile professional artists, comedians and creatives, bringing a variety of entertainment and accessible community to explore new and spellbinding experiences.
