KEY DETAILS

The Hadrian’s Wall 1900 Festival team has made the difficult decision to cancel the Saturnalia Tour event that was due to take place from 4.30pm on Monday 19th December in Silloth Green, Silloth due to high winds.

In these cases, we take the advice of experts and act accordingly, therefore the event site will not open to the public as planned. The safety of our visitors, volunteers, staff and contractors will always take priority.

Please check our website and socials for updates on tomorrow’s performance in Maryport.
