Heritage Day
The Peaky Blinders were a street gang based in Birmingham, England, which operated from the 1880s until the 1920s. The group consisted largely of young criminals from lower- to working-class backgrounds. They engaged in robbery, violence, racketeering, illegal bookmaking, and control of gambling. Members wore signature outfits that typically included tailored jackets, lapelled overcoats, buttoned waistcoats, silk scarves, bell-bottom trousers, leather boots, and peaked flat caps.
History is brought to life through historical re-enactors.
The Heritage Day featured different groups showcasing their era, demonstrations and battle recreations covering the likes of WW2, the Napoleonic period and the Vikings.
