Fowey Regatta and Carnival Week

About

There will be a Regatta in 2021!

Although it remains uncertain what restrictions might be in force by August, your Regatta Committee is determined to bring the Fowey community some sort of land based events this year to complement the full sailing programme. Things will inevitably look different to the usual timetable but will hopefully enable the community to join together and celebrate our wonderful town after a difficult year.

More details will be released in due course but we are effectively looking at a condensed programme of land based events starting on Wed 18th August with the Traders’ Carnival and incorporating the Crowning of the Queens and the Flora Dance into the traditional Wednesday evening carnival.

There will be no live music on a stage on Town Quay this year but on the Friday 20th and Saturday 21st we will be bringing you two fantastic evenings of live music on the cricket field overlooking the river at Fowey River Academy.

The Good Old Fashioned Lover Boys will be headlining the Friday night, supported by Strange Almond and Not The Beatles will be headlining the Saturday night, supported by Change the Letter, complete with the traditional Saturday closing fireworks.

During the day on Saturday 21st we hope to bring you an action packed fun day from the cricket field with more live music, entertainment and activities for all the family. Programmes and merchandise will be on sale as usual with further details to follow. As ever, if you would like to help with the organisation of these important events for our community, please email help@foweyregatta.co.uk

The Regatta is also one of the UK’s best known sailing events. There’s a full programme of races, including the famous Troys, a class of sailing boat built only in Fowey.
