The City is Full of Noises modular festival returns to the Herbert Art Gallery for their summer programme.

From FREE | Drop in & Ticketed

First held on Saturday 21 May 2022, The City is Full of Noises was set up to celebrate the legacy of Delia Derbyshire, an early pioneer of electronic music born and brought up in Coventry. Today, Derbyshire is best remembered for her work on the original Doctor Who theme music during her time with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in the 1960s, but her impact on popular music today is wide-ranging, with her innovations having influenced artists from Paul McCartney to the Chemical Brothers.

In March 2023, The City is Full of Noises returned to the Herbert with a month-long celebration of electronic music, culminating in a weekend of workshops, networking and concert performances.

After a successful run, the festival is back this summer with a brand new programme of events.
