"It's no' in steeds, it's no' in speeds,
It's something in the heart abiding;
The kindly customs, words and deeds,
It's these that make the Common-Riding.
Then rally, Teries, yin and a',
Let this year be the best o' a'."
Tonight from 7pm.

On Fri 26 - Sun 28 March, we're celebrating our annual Hawick Reivers Festival online. Step back in time to the 16th century and hear and see our Borderland and the people whose lives centred around feuds & allegiances, raids & reives.
Full programme of events coming very soon.
Hawick Common Riding Committee SCIO’s full ceremonial committee met yesterday evening, Thursday 21st January 2021, to discuss the 2021 Hawick Common Riding in relation to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Read the statement below, or on our website hawickcommonriding.co.uk

Wishing our friends at @HawickCR a great virtual Common Riding today. The committee have done a fantastic job and it’s well worth having a look at their videos and virtual concerts.
Here’s a few photos of our Braw Lad and Attendants riding at the Common Riding 2019 🏁

The Hawick Common Riding commemorates the capture of a flag from English plunderers by the youth of Hawick in 1514 & the ancient custom of riding the marches or boundaries of the common land. Records of the Common Riding principals go back to 1703.

Normally at this time of year a fascinating programme of Borders common ridings would begin with @HawickCR. We would usually wish riders #SafeOotSafeIn, but to keep people #SafeIn these current times organisers have worked hard to create a virtual Hawick Common Riding instead.
Friday from 6.30pm 💙💛
THE BIG RETURN 📹 🐴 💙💛
At 6:30 p.m. on June 5 - what should've been Common-Riding Friday - our town's biggest ever re-enactment (inc. 1800 bairns) will be live-streamed on the @HawickCR Facebook page.
