Visitors from Neukirchen-Vluyn in Germany and Mouvaux in France will be visiting Buckingham this weekend.
The Mayor of Buckingham, Cllr. Margaret Gateley will sign the English version of the formal twinning with Neukirchen-Vluyn, as well as marking twenty years of Buckingham’s twinning with Mouvaux.
To celebrate Buckingham Town Council is hosting Twinning in the Market - a musical celebration of France, Germany and the UK.
Three acts will perform: a mime artist, a German oompah band ‘Edelweiss All Stars’ and local morris dancers the Brackley Morris Men, with each act performing in front of the Old Gaol in Buckingham from 10 am until 2 pm on Saturday 19th March.
Mayor of Buckingham, Cllr. Margaret Gateley, who will be welcoming the visitors said
“It is a great honour and pleasure to welcome the Mayors of Mouvaux and Neukirchen-Vluyn alongside other guests to Buckingham this weekend for our long-awaited celebration of our three-way partnership. It is particularly important to further such friendships between nations in the light of what is going on elsewhere in our world.”
