Take a look back at the colour, creativity and community spirit of the Lord Mayor’s Weekend in recent years.

Last year's event

2025 was a hot one! 

The city celebrated 'Summer in the City' under blue skies, and the streets were filled with colour, joy and civic pride, with huge crowds cheering the Lord Mayor and the thousand strong parade as it made their way through the city. The city centre was alive with music across the weekend, with Chapelfield Gardens, Hay Hill and the Lanes showcasing the best of the city's new and established talent alongside a huge array of comedy, crafts and shows!
