PHIL BABOT — CENTRAL PERFORMATIVE WALK

Phil Babot’s performative walk takes place at 12 noon, once each day, with three walks in total across the programme.

The walk moves between Bute Park and Cardiff city centre, beginning at the Gorsedd Stone Circle in Bute Park and finishing at Woking Street in the city centre.

Each walk lasts approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, covering around 1.5 miles, with a maximum of 6 people per walk. The small group size is intentional, creating a more intimate performer / audience dynamic while minimising interference with other citizens and businesses along the route.

The walk is undemanding, although some paths will be unsuitable for wheelchairs and there is one set of stairs to negotiate.

Please bring appropriate clothing and footwear if inclement weather is expected.

Phil Babot’s walks are separately ticketed below. A ticket to the main tactileBOSCH X Morgan’s Arcade programme does not include a place on the walk.

 

KEEP LIVE ART ALIVE

Live art is fragile. Artists are often working with limited resources and uncertain opportunities, and independent spaces are vital to keeping experimental work alive.

If you want to help us keep making space for live art in Wales, you can contribute £5, £10 or £20.

Every contribution helps support artists and keep live art happening.

See you in the Library!

Proudly part of Cardiff Music City Festival.
