Leader of the city council, councillor Jane Ashworth, said: "Whether you are born and bred in one of the six towns, moved away, or recently made Stoke-on-Trent your home, you are a 'Stokie' to us. We want everyone to celebrate this small city, with a big heart.
"From street parties to cleaning up the city, I am calling on every resident to fly the flag of this great city."
