Southampton named as UK City of Culture 2025 finalist
SOUTHAMPTON is still on track to be crowned the UK's City of Culture after making the last eight cities in the contest.

The Hares of Hampshire have arrived!
Each giant sculpture has been individually designed and beautifully created, showcasing the wealth of artistic talent the county has to offer.
The art trail will be in Southampton until Thursday 25 August 2022. The streets, parks and public spaces are being brought to life with an exhibition of magnificent Hares, all around Southampton and Winchester.
Then from 9 to 11 September, there will be the chance to say a final ‘goodbye’ at a Farewell Event before each Hare is auctioned to raise funds for Southampton Children's Hospital.
