We are a vibrant, bustling and proud market town steeped in industrial, cultural and architectural heritage.
Visitors and locals come together to sample the best of Lancashire’s homegrown produce and diverse mix of local eateries, browse our thriving independent shops and cultural venues and relax in our family-friendly green spaces.
We have a remarkable legacy built on the hard work, dedication and entrepreneurship of the people of Accrington – we made bricks for the Empire State Building, revolutionised the textile trade by inventing the spinning jenny and mechanised cotton printing, and house the largest collection of Tiffany glass in Europe.
We are proud of our history and look forward to a renewed and exciting future.
