A society dedicated to celebrating and promoting the 92 historic counties of the United Kingdom and the important part they play in our culture, heritage and geography.
Lancashire Day is celebrated each year on 27th November. On this day in 1295 the first elected representatives from Lancashire were called to Westminster by King Edward I to attend what later became known as “The Model Parliament”.
Lancashire Day is the brainchild of our old friends the Friends of Real Lancashire and was first celebrated in 1996. It is a celebration of the historic county palatine: its history; its heritage; its landscapes; its cities, town & villages; and, most of all, its people. It is also the day of which the Friends of Real Lancashire announce the winner of the annual Lancastrian Awards.
