What's On

Plymouth has one of the best event programmes in the country, with year round fun for all the family.

We start the year with the first ever Plymouth History Festival, with over 130 individual, walks, talks & experiences taking place across the month of May. We celebrate the arrival of the new Lord Mayor in May with the ever popular Lord Mayor's Day followed by a great family fun Pirate Weekend on the historic Barbican.

Moving into June, Plymouth City Centre will be turned into the fashion centre of the South West with the new revamped Plymouth in Fashion week. The annual coverage of Wimbledon on the big screen returns at the end of June into July.

Brand new for 2013 is the 'Festival of Sail'. An exciting programme of events on and off the water. Starting with the exciting Route des Princes, a new European multi hull sailing race, and taking in the P1 Powerboats, Armed Forces Day and Plymouth Race Week.

Towards the end of July will see more water based entertainment with the Port of Plymouth Regatta and the Sutton Harbour Classic Boat Rally. In August the bi-annual Rolex FastNet race returns to Plymouth.

The powerful summer events programme concludes with the re running of the champion of champions British Firework Championships in August with the same 6 teams as 2012 competing for the coveted title.

August also celebrates the 10th anniversary of one of our best events, Flavour Fest. The vibrant food market which draws more than 100,000 visitors across the 3 days promises to be bigger & better this year.

As we move into the Autumn, we celebrate Britain's Ocean City with the second annual Ocean City Festival, also returning for 2013 is the popular Plymouth Seafood Festival.

Winter will see the traditional celebration events such as Bonfire night, Christmas lights switch on and the Barbican Thanksgiving & Christmas weekend.

Supported with a fantastic lineup in the Theatre Royal and Plymouth Pavilions there is so much to do in Plymouth you wont want to leave.
