NIROX WORDS Festival 2023: "My Intimate Skies"
Sunday 28 May
NIROX Sculpture Park
The NIROX WORDS Festival dedicated to the power and promise of WORDS written, spoken, and sung, bringing multiple disciplines together to appreciate and examine their profound influence in shaping our world.
The second edition of the festival, WORDS Fest 2023, is entitled “My Intimate Skies,” taking its cue from a poem written in residence at NIROX by Sudeep Sen, in which the sky becomes a portal for rethinking our relationship to place and time.

The full programme will be announced soon.
Gourmet cuisine courtesy of the Epicurean Emporium, spanning a wide selection of culinary abundance.
