From the creators of the sell-out Change:HOW 2013, a magical, imaginative, inspirational line-up and a guaranteed apathy cure.

Everyone's talking about how they don't feel inspired by politicians, but what if you could get fired up about politics and democracy again? We want to reclaim politics from rolling news, Twitter gaffes and the Westminster bubble.

100 action heroes tell us 100 stories of real, positive change, around 100 days before the next election, in Europe's older alternative nightclub. With a barbecue, films, laughter, art, poetry, music and a bar.

Come down and meet the fierce 27-year-old woman leading Bahrain's human rights movement, the Tate artist running for election against Michael Gove to bring more creativity into schools, the young actor getting his peers to 'bite the ballot' and heal the democratic deficit. And 97 more incredible changemakers, entrepreneurs, activists, political leaders, scientists and thinkers who think we can do better than the status quo.

Create your own day, hear only the speakers that you want, discover, move around, dip in-and-out, with no megaphones, no fixed breaks, no herding about. Each of our 100 makes a 15-minute pitch. You make your own schedule. We believe we have to make the world we live in.
