City of Culture

In July of this year, the Derry~Londonderry made history after successfully winning its bid to become the first ever UK City of Culture in 2013. The momentous win means that in 2013 Derry~Londonderry will play host to a year-long celebration of culture in the city, opening its doors to visitors from across the world.

The wave of euphoria across the city following this outstanding achievement is just the beginning in the telling of a new story for the region. This is a new chapter in our journey from plantation to peace, and its legacy will last for generations.  Join us and experience this journey on www.cityofculture2013.com
