As communities in the UK get ready to celebrate Windrush Day on June 22, at least 33 projects across the country have been awarded funding from the Windrush Day Grant Scheme to host events marking the occasion.

A broad range of commemorative projects including festivals in Leicester and Coventry, a sensory experience in Birmingham for young people with learning disabilities and a touring artwork in Bristol, are just some of the activities at the heart of Windrush Day 2026 celebrations.

These and other planned events from Plymouth to Leeds are set to receive a share of the £500,000 government funding to bring communities together and mark the lasting contribution of the Windrush generation to British life.
