Egremont Crab Fair



"First held in 1267"


Every year the townsfolk of Egremont hold an annual celebration after harvest time, known as The Crab Fair. 

Crab Fair day is always the third Saturday in September and is eagerly awaited by the whole community.

The Crab Fair is famous worldwide for the World Championship gurning competition, where contestants pull ugly faces through a horse collar or 'braffin'. This event is always the final event of the Fair, and causes huge excitement and sometimes controversy.
