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.
The Kernewek Lowender Copper Coast Cornish Festival is a beloved staple on the events calendar of both Yorke Peninsula and South Australia.
The festival week sees tens of thousands of people gather to celebrate Cornish heritage and traditions, while enjoying the best of the region’s food and beverage, culture, and of course, welcoming hospitality.
