CAF 2026: The Culture Show: What's Going On?

with Hannah MacInnes & Special Guests
Hosted by prominent broadcaster and podcaster Hannah MacInnes, What’s Going On? gathers a stellar panel of guests from across the arts, bringing the weekend culture supplements to life – from books, film, theatre and television to music, poetry and visual art – for a lively conversation about the ideas, people and work shaping our cultural landscape.
Alongside discussing their own work and the things they are most excited about right now, Hannah’s guests share the cultural discoveries they think you shouldn’t miss. You’ll be treated to an element of live music and performance too. Beloved author, presenter and comedian Mel Giedroyc joins Hannah for this special live edition, alongside singer-songwriter Flo Perlin, with many more guests to be announced.
The arts don’t simply entertain us: they help us make sense of an ever-changing world.
Come for the conversation, stay for the discoveries – and leave knowing what’s going on.
This event is part of the 2026 Chelsea Arts Festival.
