LIMF has been a paid for ticketed event since 2019. We ticket at a very low price point to ensure it’s accessible and to ensure we can deliver the festival year on year.
The move has been prompted in a bid to re-energise and support the city’s music sector, which was severely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
