FROM illuminated sculptures and puppet-making to choir performances and textile workshops, the full programme for Blyth Celebrates has now been confirmed - and it's promising to be a wide-ranging showcase of local creativity, community pride and cultural diversity.

Creative festival line-up unveiled

Launched at the end of June, the calendar runs from August through to March 2026 and now includes 38 new projects and activities, bringing the total to over 60 free events involving more than 50 artists, community organisations and cultural partners.

The unveiling of the finalised programme marks the next phase in the town's yearlong cultural celebration, forming a key part of the wider £95m Energising Blyth regeneration initiative.
