Bradford District is large, diverse and globally connected district with long-standing traditions of welcoming people from across the world; all of whom have played their part in contributing to its history, heritage, cultural and economic life.

As the UK’s youngest city Bradford has a diverse and vibrant population with an entrepreneurial spirit. Our district is formed of a network of cities, towns and villages each with their own unique identities, and surrounded by beautiful countryside and moorland. Cultural diversity makes Bradford district a unique and interesting place – and the sharing of these cultures brings people even closer together. We are proud to join our fellow Intercultural Cities members around the World to #CelebrateDiversity on World Day for Cultural Diversity.
