Blyth Celebrates
August 2025 to March 2026
Blyth Celebrates - a celebration of creativity and community.
​
Since August 2025, Blyth Celebrates has brought eight months of free festivals, events, and experiences to the town, from live music and art trails to family fun days and world-class experiences. Kicking off alongside the opening of the Market Pavilion and revitalised Market Place, the programme has shone a spotlight on Blyth’s vibrant community, rich heritage, and exciting future.
As the programme draws to a close, we want to thank everyone who joined in, explored, and celebrated Blyth. Watch this space – there’s more creativity and community spirit to come!​​​

The First Festival of Energy – Blyth Shines!
From 5–8 March 2026, Blyth celebrated its first-ever Festival of Energy with music, performances, and four days of free creative experiences for all ages. Presented as part of Blyth Celebrates, produced by Walk the Plank, the festival welcomed 24,347 visitors, 212 artists and performers, and 195 volunteers across 81 events, with seven new creative projects and local schools taking part. As the grand finale of the programme, it showcased Blyth’s creativity, community, and growing role in renewable energy.
Thank you to everyone who made it possible!​
