S&DR200 launch event - All Change! 🚂
S&DR200 festival launches with All Change, a spectacular open-air live performance and drone show hosted at 11Arches, Bishop Auckland.
The opening event will mark the beginning of our 9-month international festival taking place across County Durham and Tees Valley in 2025, to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the first journey on the Stockton and Darlington Railway (S&DR).
All Change is created by award-winning performance company imitating the dog, whose piece Arrivals & Departures was part of the opening events for Hull's year as City of Culture, and Movement Directors Rocky Norton and Katie Pearson, who both contributed to the grand spectacles of all four ceremonies at the Summer Olympics in London 2012.
The show will feature a fleet of 400 drones from world-renowned SKYMAGIC, promising a breathtaking visual experience set against the night sky. As pioneers behind the stunning drone and light displays at iconic events like the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, Coachella, and London's New Year's celebrations, SKYMAGIC will choreograph an aerial ensemble that weaves into the performance below. The show, which will take place for one night only, is suitable for all ages.
29 March 2025, doors open at 4:30pm, pre show starts at 6:30pm, show 7pm.
Limited capacity, tickets £5 per person.
