I am Woman 2026

I AM WOMAN returns for a powerful celebration of women, creativity, and community, marking International Women’s Day.

This inspiring event brings together women from across Milton Keynes and the wider region, showcasing outstanding musical talent and celebrating the cultural richness and diversity of our local communities.

The programme features performances by local singers and performers — both amateur and professional — culminating in a moving mass performance of the iconic anthem “I Am Woman”, sung by all participating musicians.

The evening will also include the World Premiere of Pioneer Sketches, a specially commissioned new work by acclaimed female composer Cheryl Frances-Hoad.

Join us for an uplifting night of music, unity, and celebration.
