Echo Salford interactive music trail launches

Echo Salford interactive music trail launches

We are proud to be a partner on the Echo Salford music map!

It's an exciting new augmented reality (AR) experience that takes users across the places and spaces of Salford’s iconic musical and cultural history, from MediaCity to Salford Lads Club, Islington Mill, ending at the infamous Kings Arms.

Just download the free app and head over to MediaCity to start the trail where you can meet John Cooper Clarke, The Smiths, Joy Division, Maxine Peake, Bez and many more famous guides to the city.

Heritage sites can be lost to regeneration or unforeseen closures so by using non-invasive augmented reality, physical places can be preserved for everyone to experience the impact they had and are still having.
