Falmouth Sea Shanty Festival
The Falmouth Sea Shanty Festival brings together singers and audiences to celebrate the traditional songs of the sea, set against the backdrop of one of Cornwall's most storied port towns. Expect communal singing, a convivial atmosphere, and performances rooted in the working maritime traditions that shaped this coastline. Whether you know every word or none at all, the spirit of a good shanty tends to be welcoming to newcomers. The festival is based at The Falmouth Hotel, a short walk from the harbour. A fine outing for families, folk enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to spend a June evening singing loudly with strangers.
