Fowey Regatta and Carnival Week
A lively festival of sailing, community fun and entertainment every August
Fowey Regatta and Carnival Week is one of Cornwall’s most loved annual summer celebrations, transforming the historic harbour town into a lively festival of sailing, community fun and entertainment every August.
Across the week there’s a packed programme of yacht and pilot gig races, harbour swims, the iconic Carnival Procession, fireworks, live music on Town Quay, pasty-eating and crab-catching competitions, and plenty of fun for all ages, from classic car displays to family activities on land and sea.
Most races, music, parades and community events are free to watch and attend, though donations to support the event are encouraged and a few ticketed activities may appear in the official programme
