2021 is the 150th anniversary year of the Durham Miners' Gala.

First held in 1871, the Gala has been cancelled for the second year running due to the Covid-19 pandemic. To mark the anniversary, the Friends of Durham Miners' Gala release a new short film about the world's greatest celebration of community, solidarity and working-class life.

The Gala is due to return on Saturday 9 July 2022. Help ensure it returns bigger and better than ever before. Join our band of Marras here.
