The FREE music festival returns to Wilmslow town centre in June, backed by local businesses.
Commercial property specialist, Orbit Developments, has been announced as the headline sponsor for this year's Wilmslow Live flagship event, a festival of live music and community spirit.
Excitement is building for the return of the town's vibrant, family-friendly live music festival, which is back for its second year on Saturday 21st June 2025.
The free-to-attend, open-air event will transform Bank Square in the heart of Wilmslow into a buzzing celebration of performance and family entertainment. Following the success of its 2024 debut, this year's festival promises even more - from incredible local talent and live acts to fun activities that will bring together the community.
Organised by Wilmslow's Way Better, a programme funded by the Wilmslow Business Improvement District (BID), the event is backed by one of the UK's largest commercial property companies, Orbit Developments and is the highlight of the town's summer schedule.
Lisa Russett, Wilmslow BID Manager, said:
"We're absolutely delighted to have Orbit Developments onboard as headline sponsor. Their support is a fantastic show of commitment to Wilmslow's community and town centre and it's helping us to deliver a day to remember. The incredible turnout and overwhelmingly positive feedback from last year's Wilmslow Live made bringing it back for 2025 an easy decision. The town centre was buzzing and we're so excited to do it all again - this time, even bigger and better."
Orbit Developments, which specialises in leasing commercial property spaces such as office and retail in Wilmslow, including key high street locations, saw the event as a perfect opportunity to support the community and contribute to the town's ongoing vitality.
Tony Jones, Managing Director of Orbit Developments commented:
"Supporting Wilmslow Live 2025 was a natural decision for us. We've been part of this town for many years and care deeply about its continued growth and vibrancy. This festival not only brings the community together but also showcases Wilmslow's incredible independent spirit. We're proud to be involved and give something back to the town."
