AFG owed nearly £1.5m by Coventry City of Culture Trust

Available for over a year

The temporary events space came to town during Coventry's City of Culture year, enabling thousands to enjoy acts like the Choir of Man, the Soweto gospel choir and Friendsical. Trish Adudu spoke to Coventry City Council's Leader of the Opposition Gary Ridley as well as the Assembly Festival's Artistic Director William Burdett-Coutts
