Cornish Heritage

Cornwall's history and culture and the nature of its people are unique. And all are celebrated here.

The Cornish Heritage Marquee is situated at the west end of the showground, in association with the Countryside Area. It celebrates and explores the many facets that together make Cornwall so special and at the same time provides plenty to fascinate and entertain.
