Future Yard: Beats Beyond Borders

Beats Beyond Borders is a one-day festival of music, activism and solidarity, organised by Clementine Arts CIC – https://www.instagram.com/clementineartsnorth/ 

It’s taking place on Sunday 22nd June, from 1pm-10pm, at Future Yard, Birkenhead, as part of Refugee Week 2025.

This powerful event will bring together some of Merseyside’s most exciting up-and-coming artists alongside spoken word performers, guest speakers, and refugee voices, in a creative stand with displaced communities in Palestine, Sudan and the UK.

Tickets are a minimum £12 donation and can be purchased on Future Yard’s website – https://shorturl.at/NZCbM .

100% of profits from ticket sales will go to three incredible humanitarian charities:

· Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP)
· Save the Children Sudan
· Heart 4 Refugees, a grassroots support organisation based in Birkenhead.

The line-up includes artists such as DBA!, Jessica Dives, Ellis Murphy, The Balla, Grace Elizabeth Harvey, Tender Claws, and many more — with every performer generously donating their time.

We’re also honoured to be joined by guest speaker Chantelle Lunt and poet and activist Amina Atiq, alongside contributions from members of Heart 4 Refugees, sharing poetry rooted in lived experience.

There will be family friendly elements from 1pm to 3pm with face painting, henna, and eco friendly instrument making.

This is more than a music event — it’s a moment of solidarity through creativity.
