1st May 2025 - 31st May 2025
Middlesbrough Local History Month is a showcase of the people, events and feats that give the town its unique character.
This year’s theme – Uncovering Middlesbrough’s Past To Shape Our Future – explores how the town’s remarkable social and industrial history have paved the way for the bold and ambitious Middlesbrough of the 21st century.
A packed programme – supported with a Borderlands Creative Communities Award – runs from Thursday, May 1 to Saturday, May 31, and all are invited to join in the fun.
New additions for 2025 include immersive Middlesbrough Uncovered tours, with participants guided by community voices to see the town through their eyes and walk in their shoes.
