In the past decade it has staged just under 1,000 events in Bangor to a combined audience over 300k

Open House Festival Bangor is celebrating its 10th anniversary this summer with a programme of events at Bangor Castle Walled Garden during August, plus a series of free events in the city throughout July and August.

Musicians’ musician and one-time pop star Nick Lowe, known for his late 1970s hits I love the Sound of Breaking Glass and Cruel to Be Kind will perform at the garden on August 26. Seaside Revival Vintage Festival, a celebration of Bangor’s heyday as a thriving seaside resort that was curated by Open House back in 2018, returns to the city’s seafront on August 12 with a full day of free entertainment, including live music, swing dancing, and the annual classic car show.

“Well, a lot has changed since then. Bangor is of course now a city. The cultural renaissance that we championed is thriving, with a host of talented musicians, artists and writers emerging from this small place in the past decade, including The Florentinas, who are poised for international recognition."
