🎉This year is the 50th anniversary of Derby’s twinning with Osnabruck!

⭐To mark this occasion a celebratory event is being planned for 6 June 2026. Derby City Council is seeking proposals from Derby artists, performers and others who can contribute activity or entertainment on the day.

👛Funding is available of up to £5,000 for eligible proposals, but of course, if you’re applying as/on behalf of a musician or band, then the “funding” would be at “gig fee” level (i.e. appropriate to the act/activity etc.)

The application deadline is 2nd Feb, so apply now!
