A two-day annual festival celebrating the sea takes place this weekend in Plymouth. Seafest features everything from live cooking demonstrations on the stage in the heart of the Barbican local bands and singers across the waterfront.
The event, which is being put on in partnership with Plymouth Waterfront Partnership, Plymouth Sound National Marine Park, and Plymouth City Council, also features a spectacular inflatable sperm whale with a secret inside, located at Royal William Yard.
Seafest is supported by the businesses from the Plymouth Waterfront Partnership. The Plymouth Sound National Marine Park Horizons Project has been made possible thanks to money raised by National Lottery players, with £11.6 million of funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
Kim Downer, deputy CEO, Plymouth Waterfront Partnership said: “We have such a packed programme of events for this year’s Seafest – there really is going to be so much to ‘sea’ and do for all the family, including our pawesome friends with the return of the hugely popular ‘doggy dip’ at Tinside Lido on the Sunday afternoon.”
The full Seafest programme is available at visitplymouth.co.uk/seafest-plymouth, where visitors will find the full schedule for the two-day event, including times for bands and singers, chefs and cookery demo details, and when and where entertainment spanning the waterfront from the Barbican, Sutton Harbour, Trinity Pier, Mount Batten, Tinside Lido, Royal William Yard, and Mount Edgcumbe will be happening.
To ensure visitors can easily access as much of the waterfront as possible during Seafest safely and sustainably, subsidised and free public transport offers supported by Plymouth Boat Trips, Mount Batten Ferry, and Plymouth CityBus’ ‘Shark and Ride’ will be available across the weekend.
With thanks to this year’s Seafest sponsors: Plymouth Boat Trips, Venton’s Devon Cyder, the official bar sponsor and PL1 Events for in-kind sponsorship of the cookery stage.
