About This Event

On August 18th, 2026 at 11:00, a free audio technology workshop for students in years 7 to 11 will be held at the University of Huddersfield's Queensgate Campus. Participants can also choose from paid options.

Bring your DIY music ideas to life by learning all about live sound technology. Open to young people in school years 7 – 11.

We are delighted to be partnering with Kirklees Council to offer exciting music-making opportunities for young people in school years 7 – 11 (ie. aged 11 – 16). Over the summer holiday we will be offering four fantastic multi-day workshops, all taking place at the University of Huddersfield.

Our summer holiday workshops are comprised of four distinct programmes, each designed to be attended as a multi-day course. Young people are invited to participate in as many of the programmes as they would like – each one provides an excellent opportunity to take part in hands-on, creative music-producing experiences led by industry professionals.

We are offering 10 places free of charge on each programme for young people in receipt of free school meals. A handful of places for other high school pupils are available, priced at £13.50 per 2-day programme. All places include a hot lunch provided by the University of Huddersfield’s on-campus canteen.
