Blue logo Stoke-on-Trent 100 years

Stoke-on-Trent is turning 100! In 2025, we'll celebrate a century since the city received its well-deserved status, honouring the rich history, vibrant culture, and unique identity that have made Stoke-on-Trent a global name. This year-long celebration isn't just about looking back. We'll be recognising the impact of our people and products on the world stage, while also setting our sights on the exciting years to come. 

Our Stoke-on-Trent Centenary celebrations are for everyone who calls Stoke-on-Trent home. Whether you've always lived here, were born here and moved away or recently made Stoke-on-Trent your home. You are a Stokie to us.

We're creating a year packed with events, activities, and celebrations to mark this momentous occasion. Here's where you come in…

Do you have an event planned for 2025? Or are you inspired to create one specifically for the centenary? We want to hear from you! We want you to get creative! We're open to all ideas that celebrate Stoke-on-Trent's spirit.
