Murdoch Day 2025 – Celebrating 200 Years of Steam & Rail

heritagefamily

Join us in Redruth’s historic town centre on Saturday 7 June 2025 for a vibrant celebration of innovation, heritage, and community spirit.

Marking 200 years of steam and the modern railway, this much-loved event honours inventor William Murdoch, who pioneered gas lighting and developed early steam-powered transport right here in Redruth.

With live performances, family activities, market stalls, and a town-wide parade, Murdoch Day brings the community together to celebrate Redruth’s industrial past and its creative future.
