In 2027, our city will mark a significant milestone: 800 years since receiving its Royal Charter. To honour this historic occasion, a cross-sector group, made up of local organisations, businesses and community leaders, is coming together to plan six months of celebrations, involving the whole community, to celebrate our shared heritage and future
Planning is already underway, but the heart of these celebrations will be the people who live, work and are connected to the city. The organising group is inviting individuals, community groups and businesses to get involved – whether through ideas, volunteering, partnerships or sponsorship.
The programme will showcase our community – its history, culture, creativity and innovation – while also looking forward to the opportunities that the next century brings. Events will range from heritage exhibitions and performances to festivals, learning programmes, and community-led initiatives.
2027 is a celebration of the WHOLE CITY, and it will only be as powerful as the people and organisations who shape it.
We’re inviting individuals, organisations, and businesses to be part of Salisbury’s 800th anniversary programme in 2027.
Whether you want to host an event, contribute skills, or support the celebration in other ways, this is your opportunity to celebrate, create and contribute!
