What makes a city a great cultural destination? Why is culture important?
As Sheffield bids to become the first UK City of Culture 2013, we bring together a diverse panel of national and international cultural figures to discuss the role of culture in defining a city – both in Sheffield and on an international scale. We want to know what you think. The debate will include an audience Q&A session.
Post Debate: acoustic session with Jon McClure
At the event there will be a charity collection for the Haiti Appeal
