In 2026, Salford marks 100 years since it was officially granted city status and the city is getting ready for a year of celebration!
Salford 100 is a city-wide programme of cultural, civic and community events that will explore Salford’s past, celebrate its present, and look to the future. From street parties and exhibitions to storytelling and green space projects, there’ll be something for everyone.
ForHousing is really proud to be working with other organisations across Salford to make sure the celebrations go with a bang!
You can help shape the Centenary by sharing your ideas and saying what you think should be part of the celebrations.
