Celebrating Milton Keynes’ 50th Anniversary in 2017

MK50 – New Town, Tomorrow’s City

MK50 Business Engagement Programme

In 2017 Milton Keynes will be 50 years old and we want to celebrate the past, present and future of our amazing city. Through a year-long programme of activities, we will celebrate Milton Keynes and its pioneers, creating shared memories and showing off its design, architecture, green spaces, culture and people and especially the business organisations that make Milton Keynes what it is. MK50 will provide an inclusive programme of events and activities at all scales, enabling business organisations of all sizes and sectors to be part of the celebrations.

MK50 is an important milestone for Milton Keynes on the journey towards bidding to be European Capital of Culture in 2023, providing a platform to develop the arts and cultural landscape of Milton Keynes in readiness for this exciting opportunity.
