More information about this event
Every year the annual event “Durham big meeting” also known as the miners gala takes place in Durham City, the event has been running since 1871, the event was a meeting of the NUM (national union of miners) but now because the mines don’t exist in the capacity they once where it is more of a social gathering of people from around County Durham and the North East area.
This years event attracted over 25,000 people through out the day with marching brass bands still performing early in the morning progressing to the race course by the river.
As we are a regular trader at Durham outdoor market we where asked to provide a double stand for this event to handle the large amount of people passing through the City.
Our food station was very popular all day and we sold out of everything just before 5pm.
If you have a event you are planning and think you may require food to be sold directly to the people attending please contact us we maybe able to provide the service.
