Sidmouth Sea Fest

A festival like no other, Sidmouth Sea Fest is an annual coastal community celebration that is held annually in the town featuring creativity, music and food which works to promote coastal living and celebrating the region’s fishing heritage.

The festival is produced by Sidmouth Coastal Community Hub, who aim to celebrate Sidmouth’s vibrant coastal community with a host of interesting events and workshops designed to educate about life on the coast. It is a fun filled quirky festival filled with collaborations with local community groups to celebrate everything in, on and by the sea. This free festival is great for all ages and encourages engagement through a host of activities to suit everyone. With workshops featuring arts and crafts, food and drink, live music and bands including the Sea Fest Coastal Community Choir, heritage fishing skills, games and more, everyone will be entertained all day long.

Each year, the festival chooses a different seaside theme and events take place throughout the town, many of them centred around the Ham with areas like Port Royal, Esplanade and Lifeboat Station also being used as venues.

Sidmouth’s fishing heritage

Like many of the towns and villages located along the coast in Devon, Sidmouth started out as a small fishing village. Fishing was the main source of income and food and continues to be a hub for anglers.
