Council events
We are dedicated to providing free events that bring the city together throughout the year, and our main priority is always about keeping everyone safe.
Due to the current coronavirus situation we will be reviewing arrangements for all council-run events in line with government guidance, as well as liaising with participants, performers, contractors and emergency services.
Plans for each event will depend not only on the time of year they are due to take place, but the activities required to plan them.
Updates for individual events will be provided as soon we have them.
Dates for your diary
