Prestigious International Conference: Bradford 11–12 May 2017

Previous Event in Leicester

Cycle City Active City is the ground-breaking conference and exhibition for all those working to encourage utility cycling, walking and active, healthy lifestyles across Britain. This year it will be hosted in our very own National Media Museum.

Town and cities with high levels of cycling, walking, play and sport are fit, fun and work for people. This event shows how we get from potential to reality.

This 5th Annual Cycle City Active City includes a two-day exhibition of the product and service suppliers to the sector, with plenary presentations by high-profile individuals throughout the UK and beyond with expertise and influence in cycling and walking policy, promotion and infrastructure, active place-making, public health, and positive urban design and development.

Why Bradford?

Bradford is a city with huge latent potential for cycling and so much more. Lots of exciting and good things are happening now – like the stunning City Park, transforming the heart of the city. In April Bradford hosts the final stage of the Tour de Yorkshire followed two weeks later by this prestigious conference. It is clear 2017 is going to be a pivotal year for cycling in Bradford with the addition of the 14km Leeds-Bradford CityConnect cycle superhighway to the huge amount of cycling-related activity going on in the district.
