Join the party! 16th June – Salford Rediscovered

Salford Rediscovered is a celebratory closing party to mark the end of the Rediscovering Salford project, a city-wide programme of events which highlight and celebrate Salford’s green spaces – inspired by the launch of RHS Bridgewater gardens.  


From 2020 – 2022, Rediscovering Salford animated the city with new commissions, exhibitions, workshops and events. As it comes to a close, we will gather to share and celebrate with a bang across Salford Museum and Art Gallery, the University of Salford campus, and Peel Park. The event will include visual art, music, films, tours, performances and more. From an exclusive appearance of ‘Madam Mort’ as created by drag artist Cheddar Gorgeous, to mouth-watering street food from GRUB, and to family-friendly workshops, this is a party for anyone and everyone. Families can enjoy workshops and fun-for-all performances from 4:00-6:30 across The Crescent with receptions, live music and a growing ‘party vibe’ from 7:00 onwards.

After all the trials and tribulations of the last few years, we can’t wait to celebrate with everyone involved in making Rediscovering Salford such a vibrant project. We do hope you can join us as we celebrate in style on the 16th.

The full programme is now available over on the Eventbrite page, with the full listings of all the afternoon’s activities from curators tours to live DJs.
