We invite you to a magical outdoor spectacle for a family audience, created by outdoor arts pioneers, Walk the Plank. As the clocks turn back, we celebrate the city's heritage, shine a spotlight on today's talent, and look to Salford’s future…This half term, join us to celebrate our city’s 100th Birthday, in a not-to-be-missed extravaganza in Seedley Park, inspired by the city's industry, the Salford Sioux and a summer of cultural events co-created with communities across the city.
Expect aerial performance, a glittering glowing Time Capsule, the Wagon Train of inventions (celebrating innovations such as electricity and space exploration)... and the return of the gigantic birthday cake! The event will feature dancers representing the heydays of Salford’s entertainment nightlife from ballroom to Northern Soul; live music from drummers, plus DJs.
There will also be a parade of lanterns (made and carried by local children) representing the Fuel of the Future, and Pride of Salford torchbearers will ignite a huge fire drawing, designed by young people. The event will draw to a close with a firework finale.
This event is free, with no tickets required.
