About

In 2027, Milton Keynes turns 60 — and we’re marking this milestone with a very special cultural programme developed to celebrate our pride in Milton Keynes. MK60 will celebrate our journey from new town to new city.

From neighbourhood events and public art to performances, exhibitions and creative projects, MK60 brings together residents, artists and organisations to reflect on our shared story and look ahead to an exciting new chapter.

The programme will:

  • Celebrate the people and places that make
    MK special
  • Showcase creativity across our communities
  • Support new cultural activity through grants and commissions
  • Inspire pride in MK’s identity as a growing, future-focused city

MK60 is not just a programme of events — it’s a city-wide conversation about who we are and where we’re going next.
