Everyone is welcome, and we are offering free tickets. If you wish you can also choose a ticket for £5, £10 or £15, or you can make a donation when you check out. All proceeds will go to the Marras - Friends of Durham Miners Gala to help fund the 2026 Gala.
You can also make a donation on the evening when we will also be selling a range of fantastic Gala merch. All proceeds will go to help fund the 140th Durham Miners Gala on Saturday 11 July 2026.
