Since 1997, the 1in12 Club in Bradford has been reclaiming May Day in solidarity with and in celebration of International Workers Day on May 1st. In solidarity with celebrations & protests around the world & inspired by a visit to Barcelona, the 1in12 Club has brought the spirit of May Day to Bradford through theatre, film, football, debate, dancing, music, marches and more.
This year with May 1st falling on a Saturday, a weekend of events is in the planning stretching from Thursday 29th April to Monday 3rd May. The May Day Collective hope the focal point of the weekend will be events on May Day itself, with a DIY picnic & party for workers solidarity on Infirmary Fields. There’ll be more than just humous sarnies on the menu - bring your own entertainment, games, noise, flags, kids…….etc. Once you’ve had your fill of butties, there’ll be cabaret, cocktails & dancing at the club from about 8pm till very late.
Other May Day events are:
Thursday 29th April: 1in12 Club Library launch party – drink wine and feast on nibbles in the clubs renovated and expanded Anarchist Library.
Friday 30th April: Hardcore crust/punk/metal TRAGEDY & more tbc.
Saturday 1st May: MAY DAY MAY DAY MAYHEM
-infirmary fields from 1pm
-1in12 club from 8pm, cabaret featuring comedy from Rob Newman, Duncan Millard, Steve Bobcat &more tbc.
Sunday 2nd May: Eclectic music & Film Screenings
Monday 3rd May: Peasants Collective wind down & dig in @ the allotment – BBQ & Bonfire(more details tbc nearer time)
Any other ideas & comments for events would be welcome and much appreciated. We still need more people, entertainment & action ideas for the picnic & cabaret, performers & ideas for Sunday (any workshop ideas anyone?) & general support for the whole weekend. The next May Day Collective meetings at the 1in12 Club are on 7th April & 23rd April at 8.30pm, everyone welcome. Email library@1in12.com or Tel: 01274 734160 for info/support.
