About Burnley

Learn more about the host city, Burnley.

Burnley is a town in Lancashire, 30 miles north of Manchester. It's an industrial town, but it's proud of its many parks that have been awarded the Green Flag for excellence, and of Burnley Forest — great places for walking or cycling. The Singing Ringing Tree on Crown Point Moor is a piece of sound art made of galvanised steel pipes which make an incredible eerie noise in the wind. In 2021 Burnley had a population of 94,700.
