A Celebration to Remember - Devonshire Street’s opening event was a huge success!
Cumberland Council, in partnership with local contractors Eric Wright Civil Engineering Limited and businesses along Devonshire Street, hosted a spectacular celebration to mark the transformed street.
The event, held on Saturday (3 August) from 1pm to 6pm, was a resounding success, with the community coming together for an unforgettable day of music, fun, sun, and festivity.
The highlight of the afternoon was a vibrant music festival, featuring an impressive lineup curated by ‘Rock With.’ The stage, strategically set up at the base of Devonshire Street showcased a diverse range of musical talents; including 99 Mr Benns; Phil Lewthwaite; Somethin' Brewin'; The Window View; and Red Handed Siren.
The project construction began in February 2024, has been successfully completed in five months, transforming the area with outdoor seating, street furniture, benches, cycle parking, trees, and plants, and will officially open week commencing 5 August.
This £2.04 million government-funded investment has created a high-quality, welcoming environment for residents, businesses, and visitors alike.
