The Salford Ranger team work in a number of Salford's parks, country parks and local nature reserves. Our aim is to make these places somewhere for everyone to enjoy. We do this through providing outdoor education, volunteer days, events, guided walks and nature conservation. We work closely with friends groups, schools, voluntary organisations, local people and partner organisations to make Salford's parks, countryside and nature reserves safer, cleaner and greener.

Working with partners regionally and across the globe, MIF23's wide-ranging programme of original new work by artists from around the world will take place in venues and spaces throughout the city and at Factory International’s much-anticipated new home, which opens its doors for the first time for the Festival, in advance of its official opening in October. From a collaboration exploring art and the beautiful game by curator Hans Ulrich Obrist and footballer Juan Mata, featuring new work by Tino Sehgal, to a mixed reality concert by Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, from a live photographic performance by Benji Reid to a musical adaptation of a cult queer classic by Philip Venables and Ted Huffman, the expansive programme of new work premiering at the Festival will see artforms merge, breaking new creative ground and challenging perceptions.
