Join our living parade.

Celebrated artist Matthew Rosier brings his signature community-led installation artwork to Berwick, across three evenings at the Barracks Parade Ground.  

Berwick Parade will utilise giant-scale projections on three walls of Berwick Barracks as members of the town’s community move around the square in an immersive experience. Inspired by the parades and celebrations of the past, this spectacular event will represent and celebrate the many people who live in Berwick and its surrounding areas. Accompanied by live music from local musicians, Berwick Parade will be a unique way to experience the past, present and future of Berwick Barracks and the community it serves.

This creative installation marks the first commission of The Living Barracks project, which aims to restore and renew the historic site that has played a pivotal role in the town’s social and cultural life for centuries.  

Please join us for this very special event at Berwick Barracks.

There will be shelter and refreshments available at the venue, but we advise dressing for all weathers.

Once you have booked your tickets for your timeslot you are welcome to stay on site for the remainder of the evening.   

Berwick Parade has been commissioned by The Maltings (Berwick) Trust on behalf of Create Berwick, a 5-year initiative supported by North East Combined Authority and Northumberland County Council. It is also supported through The Cultural Development Fund, a Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) fund administered by Arts Council England.
