The regions of North Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire all come together during November to commemorate the Mayflower Pilgrims, a number of whom originated from Bassetlaw.

The Mayflower Pilgrims’ Festival starts on Thursday 15th November with a Thanksgiving Dinner in Retford, followed by commemorative events in Worksop, Retford, Babworth, Scrooby, Austerfield, Bawtry and Gainsborough and ends on Sunday 25th with a Pilgrims Fun Run!

There's great excitement in North Notts since it was announced that The Tour of Britain cycle race will be running a whole stage in Nottinghamshire on Weds 6th September!

And the news gets even better!  Not just through Nottinghamshire but 120 of the world’s top cyclists will be racing 175 km mainly in North Notts!
