Bolsover’s bid to become heart of culture
Bolsover is bidding to become the UK’s first Town of Culture.
It has been announced by the Government that in 2028, Britain will have its first ever town of culture.
Bolsover’s bid, if successful, could bring in significant amounts of money for creative or cultural projects.
Culture isn’t new to Bolsover; the town and surrounding areas are rich in creativity and the arts. From lantern parades to artisan markets, and drama groups to a 17th century castle, Bolsover lives and breathes culture.
