Richard Bromhall, programme director at the organisation, said: "Hip hop is all about self-expression, and we want to see what young people have to offer.

"We’re inviting homegrown talent to join us for an open mic session as part of a night filled with performances from both professional hip hop artists and rising stars.

"No matter your experience level, if you’ve got something to share, this is your shot to be part of something new.

"Let’s make hip hop history."

The first part of the event involves two days of creative hip hop workshops at the venue between 10.45am and 3.30pm on Monday, October 28, and Tuesday, October 29.

Spaces for the workshops are limited and people are advised to book online in advance.

The second part is a hip hop event night with an open mic at the venue from 7pm on Tuesday, October 29, also for nine to 18-year-olds.
