The festival includes displays from other Cornish organisations, which provide information about current activities in the world of Cornish culture. There is also a programme of Cornish entertainment and speeches from local leaders like town mayors and the Grand Bard of Gorsedh Kernow, another important Cornish culture organisation. There is a similar festival held by the Federation of Old Cornwall Societies in the summer, which also moves to a new location every year.
