Yorkshire Day
Encyclopedia : Y : YO : YOR : Yorkshire Day
Yorkshire Day is celebrated on 1 August to promote the English county of Yorkshire as a good place to be born, to live, to work in and to visit. Amongst the celebrations there is a Civic gathering of Lord Mayors, Mayors, and other Civic Heads from across the county convened by the Yorkshire Society. In 2004 this meeting was held in Leeds and in 2005 it was held in Bradford.
The people of Penistone will be hosting the day in August 2006. The early plans are to have a luncheon, a procession through the town and an open air concert in Water Hall Park.
