Approx 100,000 people turned out for the event. Speakers included Tony Woodley Unite joint general secretary, Paul Kenny GMB leader, Frances O'Grady Trades Union Congress deputy and Bolsover MP Dennis Skinner.
The gala is an important opportunity to see and experience what solidarity and trade unionism is all about and giving hope to the youth of today.

Great to see the Durham Gala get a mention. Ricky Tomlinson was here this year and says he will be back next year with some mates.
It is a shame to see most of the labour party turn there backs on the unions. What will happen when the likes of Benn and Skinner are not around?
