The First Hungerford Wassail, 2020

The Gallopers performed at Hungerford's first Wassail at the Cider Barn in Hungerford in January 2020. As well as celebratory dancing by the Gallopers the new year was welcomed by the Constable of The Town & Manor of Hungerford & Liberty of Sanden Fee. The traditional festival blessed the apple trees and welcomed them from their winter slumber with toast hanging from the trees and the eating of Wassail cake and drinking from the Wassail cup.

Artifoire de Hollain, Belgium, 2017

This was our first overseas gig and what an event it was!

We were delighted to be representing England at this 43rd music, dance and craft festival in Hollain, Belgium. Every year this event in a small village in the South of Belgium hosts a different country to share their dance traditions. We were honoured to be one of only four groups from England to represent their first ever UK guests, together with new friends Earlsdon Morris and Coventry Mummers from Coventry and our old friends Ridgeway Step Clog from Oxfordshire.

This was a weekend of sharing dance and music traditions with Walloon and Midlands culture. in the the most incredibly hospitable atmosphere. There was much dancing, music and joy fuelled by good food and naturally beer!
