Such a momentous occasion and a springboard for Cornwall as a whole!

Cornwall Council's leader led the parade of Celtic nations into a stadium of thousands at the Interceltic Festival.
'It was unbelievable. It's the first time I've ever been cheered just for being Cornish.'

Things we’ve seen on our days off! ✨

We have loved seeing all that the festival has to offer, the sights, the sounds, and the amazing performances…

We’ve particularly enjoyed catching all the Cornish performances in the Garden of Cornwall this year! ✨

Great to see the Donna Capel full of the Cornish! Today we've got The Celtic Male Ensemble singing at 4pm and Toby and Jen Kessell at 6pm for some tunes!

Thanks to Joanna Davison and John for hosting us aboard the lovely Donna Capel between sets on Saturday night. Beautiful boat!
