The event finishes with a performance of three specially-commissioned new works by local composers Úna Monaghan, Rory Friers and Jamie Thompson, which will be performed at 8pm by the Ulster Orchestra.

The new pieces have been inspired by memories and stories of Townsend Street shared by members of the public, along with their hopes and aspirations for the future.

Visuals relating to the street will be projected during the performance.
