Films this year include A Crude Awakening, SOCPA and The Shock Doctrine Short Film.

Feed your mind in the Speaker’s Tent. This year features Jeremy Leggett on the New Green Deal, Nafeez Ahmed on The War on Terror and David Fleming on Tradable Energy Quotas.

A variety of campaign groups including War on Want (WOW), World Development Movement (WDM) and Plane Stupid will talk on issues such as Global Europe and Threats to Activism.
