We’re proud to have made history!
The theme of Ramadan Festival 2024 is Heritage: Past, Present and Future, celebrating the rich Islamic culture and tradition observed by millions globally. Heritage, both tangible and intangible, preserves the spirit, culture, and tradition of a people, including the Qur’an as the greatest heritage.
Ramadan Festival highlights the remarkable contributions of the Muslim world to British culture and life. Through events like Open Iftar at historic sites like Guildhall and Shakespeare’s Globe, we celebrate shared cultural heritage and foster human connections. Ramadan Tent Project continues to curate spaces for reflection and belonging, weaving a dynamic history that bridges communities. This year’s festival emphasises the importance of heritage in preserving identity, culture, and belonging, welcoming people of all faiths and backgrounds.

It all started in 2013 when a group of students came together and invited international students,
who were living alone in the UK, to join in the spirit of Ramadan through breaking their fasts together.
The purpose? To provide a home away from home and embody the beauty of our faith.
