The annual Sowerby Bridge Rushbearing Festival returns this weekend 7th and 8th Sept 2024.
Rushbearing is a centuries-old tradition – a late summer opportunity for community merriment and revelry. The Sowerby Bridge Rushbearing Festival is one of only a few instances of this singular English custom still being celebrated annually.
The focal point of the procession is the sixteen feet high, two wheeled, handsomely decorated and thatched rushcart. A team of ladies take turns to ride on top of the cart as it is pulled by sixty local men dressed in Panama hats, white shirts, black trousers and clogs. Accompanying them are a group of supporters in Edwardian dress along with some of the region’s finest musicians and morris dancing teams to provide entertainment for the crowds.

Another short #dogwalk excerpt for those who can’t get out into the countryside right now. Yorkshire #rapeseed #bigwhitedogadventures #akitasofinstagram
Yorkshire is blessed with miles of footpaths and tracks - if you do need some time outside - stay away from the popular destinations and find a local walk near to home. You may find you are the only one there - which is what we all need right now.
