Pendle Festival of Culture will take place this year on Saturday 27th June 12noon-6pm.
All the usual celebrating, eating, creating and making memories with loved ones, plus some new twists and surprises to keep things fresh!
“Many towns and cities have festivals celebrating diversity, but one of the things that makes Pendle Festival of Culture unique is the Peace Walks. The banners and flags created in artist-led workshops, carried by people from different areas of Pendle arrive in the centre of Nelson to start the festival. It's a symbolic and physical coming-together of different communities across our area representing unity, peace and fun!” - Holly Noonan, Building Bridges.”
