Quingo Starlequinn @Freedom Fesival 2026

Looking for an excuse to dance in the streets? Quingo Starlequinn, national drummer, is here to lead a feel-good dance party through the streets of Hull City Centre. But Quingo is no ordinary drummer - he's an enormous puppet, complete with a built-in DJ booth in his drums, where a local DJ will cruise around providing the House tunes to get you moving and grooving! Created in collaboration with local disability groups, this is a wonderfully uplifting parade piece that you can watch as it takes over the street, or let the music carry you into the fold!

For this show, we're looking for participants to attend workshops and become parade people. If you're an individual or you lead a group who'd be interested in getting involved, get in touch with us via [email protected] for more details and to sign up!

Quingo Starlequinn the National Drummer was co-designed by young people from Heart n Soul’s Do Your Own Thing and Emergency Exit Arts.
