Website | EmailThis is the largest Cornish festival of its type in the world, held in the Yorke Peninsula "Copper Triangle" towns of Moonta, Wallaroo and Kadina. Cornish and Welsh immigrants moved here in the 1840s, with copper mining at its peak in the 1860s. The climate has meant great preservation of original buildings and relics. This festival attracts up to 100,000 visitors. Attend the Village Green Fare (held simultaneously with the same event in Cornwall, England), the Surrey Dance, learn how to crimp a Cornish pasty and delight at the pipe bands.
