135th Durham Miners’ Gala.
Tomorrow is the 135th Durham Miners’ Gala.
The annual Durham Miners’ Gala is a unique and inspiring spectacle. It is Europe’s biggest celebration of community, international solidarity, and working class culture. More than 200,000 people pack the streets of Durham to enjoy the sights and sounds of The Big Meeting. Hosted by the Durham Miners’ Association since 1871, the Big Meeting is a vibrant carnival of hope and unity. It is a living expression of the Durham Miners’ motto – ‘the past we inherit, the future we build’. There is nothing like it anywhere else in the world.
Below are some photographs of last years brilliant Gala and some historic photographs taken during the miners strike.
