S&DR200 is an international festival taking place from March to November 2025 inspired by this journey. It will present a series of free large-scale outdoor events, exhibitions and new art commissions in the public spaces, libraries, and world-class museums of County Durham and Tees Valley.

Visitors of all ages will enjoy immersive art installations and augmented-reality digital games, see treasured artworks in the region for the first time, join thousands of others for awe-inspiring outdoor events and see some of the world’s favourite locomotives.

Rail enthusiasts and budding historians will be able to hear from experts in their fields and we will delve into the future of travel with our industry partners. Local children will enjoy hands-on creative workshops and young people, local communities and arts organisations will create special events for the festival.
