Events In Peak District's Historic Border Country
From Well dressing to Chesterfield Market there's something for everyone
The Peak District's Historic Border Country is home to a whole host of events. There are specialist events like the Ashover Vintage Car Rally and Cromford Steam Rally. Music Festivals such as Stainsby Folk Festival, and one-off events like the Chesterfield Market Festival (29-31 October 2009). There are country shows like the 'Friendly Show' at Ashover in August and the Chatsworth Country Fair in September. Then there are events around Chesterfield Market, including Holiday Markets on all the summer Bank Holiday Mondays, the Medieval Market (28 July 2009) and the Christmas Market in November.
There are events at attractions like Hardwick Hall, re-enactments at Bolsover Castle, explore the Ice Age at Creswell Crags, not to mention galas, carnivals, fireworks and plays. Finally there is Well Dressing, a custom so old that its roots are lost in the past.
