Bradford 2025 brings Ramadan Pavilion and Open Iftar to city

By Abdullahi Yusuf

Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture and the Ramadan Tent Project have partnered for the Muslim holy month.

The collaboration will bring the Ramadan Festival, Ramadan Pavilion, and two national Open Iftar events to Bradford.

The biennial Ramadan Pavilion, launched in 2023, will be hosted in Bradford’s Centenary Square. The structure, named Infinite Light, was designed by Fatima Mejbil , a Bradford-based architect, and Zarah Hussain, artist. It will be unveiled on February 15.

The pavilion aims to highlight the core values and traditions of Ramadan through architectural expression.

Open Iftar, the flagship initiative of the Ramadan Tent Project, is the UK’s largest community event during Ramadan. Two Open Iftar events will take place on March 21 and 22 at One City Park, Bradford. St George’s Hall will host the Welcome Ramadan Conference on February 15.

The day-long event will feature discussions, panels, and speeches on the theme of ‘Connection’.

Shanaz Gulzar, creative director of Bradford 2025, said: “Bradford 2025 is delighted to welcome the Ramadan Pavilion and Open Iftars to our city as part of our UK City of Culture celebrations.

“Ramadan is a time of reflection, community, and generosity—values that are deeply embedded in Bradford’s story.

“Our district is a vibrant mix of cultures and faiths, and this is a chance for people from all backgrounds to come together, share in the spirit of Ramadan, and experience its significance.
