The Festivals and Events Unit directly manages a wide range of festivals and events, including Abbey Park Bonfire and Leicester's Diwali Celebrations. The Unit also works in partnership with independent organisations to co-promote and deliver festivals and events.

The Unit provides advice and support for the community and festival organisers on staging outdoor public events and festivals within the city. It also takes bookings for parks and open spaces where festivals and events are held.
