What's Happening

Keep your eyes peeled for some great events coming your way as we celebrate as only Salford knows how.

Salford is a hotbed of creative production, boasting leading artist-led studios, workshops, creation spaces, museums, art galleries, performance venues and a buzzing year-round calendar of events.

From urban buzz to greenbelt tranquility, the city is building on its waterfront, urban and countryside environments and rich cultural heritage to create places where people want to live, work, invest and visit.

Cultural Programme

Salford has a distinct and thriving cultural identity and in 2026, there’ll be a unique programme of events and activities reflecting what that makes the city great.

Civic Events

Salford’s civic heritage is an important part of city’s history, so, look out for more civic events than we’ve ever hosted before!

Communities

Throughout the year, we’re planning a range of initiatives across the city’s diverse communities. They’ll be plenty of chances to get involved as well as the opportunity for groups to plan their own events.
