Bodmin Riding won’t take place in July 2021 - but you should still look (and listen!) out for friends of the festival marking the occasion this year. And 2022 will certainly be something to look forward to! Meur ras (thank you) for your support. #heritage#festival#community
Fond memories of the Heritage Day craft fair? Tomorrow @intoBodmin host their monthly #Bodmin#craft market. If you’re visiting the market and cafe at around 12.30 you might also spot the Raggadaziow…
Whilst the festival isn’t going ahead this weekend, the Raggadaziow WILL still be marking the occasion with a tour of the town. Catch them performing at one of various locations on Saturday. #Bodmin#whatson#heritage#traditions

3rd July 2021, and thanks to our good friends the Raggadaziow, here’s a little taste of the heritage and revels we’d usually be enjoying. Meur ras all! Here’s to our history, our future, and hopes of coming together again for the Riding Festival in 2022. https://t.co/Yly05xgAzO
Meur ras Paul! Thank you for sharing this tradition with us. The curfew bell at St Petroc’s #Bodmin#Cornwall has been rung since medieval times, and has continued as part of heritage and riding festival. Did you hear it?
Dydh da! Today we're saying 'meur ras Kernow (thank you Cornwall)!'
Of course it's all splann but is there a little patch of Kernow you're particularly thankful for? Send us your photos, videos or messages and say 'meur ras Kernow!' Tag them with #speakcornish#meurras.
Join our good friends @GoldenTreeUK up at Colliford Lake this weekend, making a start on preparations for Kerdroya. Sign up and there’ll be a pasty from our friends @proper_cornish in it for you! Splann!
Cornish folks......
Herbert Stanley Allen FRSE FRS pioneer in early X-ray research, quantum physicist born in Bodmin on 29th December 1873 Very proud of his Cornish birth and that was no doubt the reason why his house in Hepburn Gardens, St Andrews, was named ‘Lamorna’.
