Music, food and more throughout Sunday 18 June as the Windrush 75 Festival heads to Avenham Park visitpreston ParksInPreston
The Windrush 75 Festival will be held on Sunday 18 June and will feature a jammed packed schedule of live entertainment throughout the day.
“This year’s event couldn’t have been possible without the support of Preston City Council, Preston BID, and all our volunteers, supporters and sponsors in the city, so a big thank you to everyone who has pulled together to make this year’s event extra special. Preston’s Windrush festival was one of the first official festivals held in the UK in recognition of the Windrush community’s brave and adventurous elders, honouring their contribution building back post-war Britain. This year marks 75 years since the ship, the HMT Empire Windrush, docked on the River Thames, bringing one of the first large groups of post-war West Indian immigrants to the UK.
