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.
Cheshire Day is celebrated each year on 30th March. The date commemorates the day in 1300 when Edward I confirmed a charter of liberties for Cheshire, sometimes dubbed the Magna Carta of Cheshire. In celebration, we present our Seven Wonders of Cheshire.
The theme for Cheshire Day 2026 was ‘Made in Cheshire’ with festivities revolving around everything from the county’s bounty and passionate artisans to its key industries of cheese, salt and silk.
