The Wagon Train

Walk the Plank’s pop-up festival in your neighbourhood, celebrating the heart and soul of Salford. With free, family-friendly entertainment throughout the summer, visitors can expect music, poetry, play space, karaoke, talent competitions and much more, in a programme co-created with Salford’s citizens.

Events will take place whatever the weather! All Wagon Train events are inclusive, all welcome. We encourage attendees to walk or use public transport when planning their journey: https://tfgm.com/plan-a-journey. The events take place on even ground, with no steps, and there is bench-style seating available. There are four steps onto the Wagon. Photographs and film will be taken at the event: please let a member of event staff know if you don’t consent to this or require further information.

If you have any questions about access or the events on the day, please email jess@walktheplank.co.uk

Produced by Walk the Plank. Part of Salford 100, celebrating one hundred years of our city. Taking place across all of Salford and finishing with a fantastic finale this autumn. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England, and by Salford City Council.
