Medway Rocks!

Published 27 April 2021 

Medway’s musicians are being given the chance to perform alongside the likes of UB40, The Libertines and Soul II Soul. Medway’s UK City of Culture 2025 bid and Rochester Castle Concerts are offering Medway 2025 Homegrown Sets at this summer’s events. 

With the area preparing to submit its bid, now is the time to demonstrate why Medway should be UK City of Culture in 2025. With this in mind, local talent is invited to perform at one of Medway’s biggest summer events to show just why Medway deserves its moment in the national spotlight.
