The Skipper Festival - A Free Summer Celebration on the Harbour
Advertisement
The Skipper Festival is a brand new late-summer celebration of harbour life, coastal culture and good company, taking place at Charlestown Harbour over the August Bank Holiday weekend. Entry is free!
Set against the backdrop of one of Britain's most iconic historic harbours, the festival will bring together visiting boats, live music, watersports, food and drink, maritime workshops, art installations and family-friendly activities for a relaxed weekend by the sea.
Whether you're arriving by boat, joining us for the day, or spending the whole weekend soaking up the atmosphere, there will be plenty to discover around the harbour. Expect harbour-side music, visiting vessels, rum, cider and spritz bars, opportunities to get out on the water, and a programme of activities celebrating Charlestown's unique maritime character.
At the heart of the festival is a simple idea: bringing people together to enjoy the best of summer on the Cornish coast. From sailors and sea lovers to families, visitors and locals, everyone is welcome.
Full programme details, visiting vessels, music line-ups and activity announcements will be released throughout the summer.
