Bootle-icious! 🪩✨

There’s already a cultural energy bubbling in Bootle - this opportunity would rocket boost the towns regeneration plans and place make, whilst giving back to its brilliant community who are bold, ambitious and funny.

We would deliver an events programme that’s fun, could only happen in Bootle, full of pinch me moments and with a meaningful lasting legacy.

The competition is high - Help us to spread the word… Bootle Town Of Culture 2028, sounds good to me!
