In April 2025 Todmorden Town Hall will be 150 and we are aiming to create a memorable and extraordinary fortnight of free events involving the whole community to celebrate the anniversary.

The Friends of Todmorden Town Hall is working with Calderdale Council to deliver the project, which will be part of Culturedale 2025.
The celebrations run from 22nd of March to 6th of April.
