One may ponder,  what does Kernewek Lowender mean or what does it represent?

Kernewek Lowender means “Cornish Happiness”.

Cornish Happiness is what the Cornish migrants discovered when they migrated to the towns of Moonta, Kadina & Wallaroo. 

Why do we hold a festival biennially to celebrate this one may ask?  

We celebrate the traditions, culture, and heritage of our Cornish ancestors.
