The annual Sea Shanty and Folk Music Festival is one of the highlights of the Weston-super-Mare calendar.
The free festival is expected to take over the town on 31st July - 2nd August 2026 bringing a carnival atmosphere to the town.
More than 40 bands are set to perform, playing across a variety of bars and venues in the town centre as well as on the main stage in the Italian Gardens.
Entry to all venues is free although donations into the charity buckets which will be collecting for the RNLI and The Lions Club, will be appreciated.
In addition to the musicians, there will be pirate crews invading Weston-super-Mare and visitors are encouraged to join in the fun and dress as pirates if they wish!
