Oxford’s Rebels and Radicals – April 2027.

On 23 April 2027, between 10:15AM and 3:15PM at Carfax Tower, Queen Street, there will be a walking tour where you will hear about epic ‘town vs gown’ riots, fiercely independent medieval women, determined but doomed Levellers, acid-sprinkling Suffragettes, pioneering Black students and the locals who kicked fascists out of the city for good. From Oscar Wilde to Rhodes Must Fall, the Radical Oxford tour tells the fascinating and inspiring stories of those who have pushed back against power, privilege, discrimination and inequality throughout Oxford’s 1300-year history.

The afternoon lecture will expand on the themes of the tour and explore how and why radicals of all types have changed Oxford over the centuries.

This event will close to enrolments at 23:59 on 20 April 2027.
