Is Newbury A Twin Town?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating


    Newbury is twinned with the following towns:

    Braunfels, Germany - 1963

    Bagnols-sur-Ceze, France - 1970

    Eeklo, Belgium - 1974

    Feltre, Italy - 2003

    There is a Newbury Twin Town Association, which exists to promote and maintain educational, cultural, and social exchanges between Newbury and the towns that Newbury is twinned with. Events are held throughout the year, with an annual reunion that takes place in one or other of Newbury's twin towns. Next year, in 2007, it will be  Newbury's turn to host the next international reunion.

    The Twin Town Association currently has approximately 80 family members. Membership of the association is open to all families or individuals. There is also a Youth For Europe committee section. This ensures that young people are able to participate in trips abroad. The events allow members to develop long lasting friendships with other foreign town residents.
