Set on the golden sands of Porthminster Beach with St Ives harbour as a backdrop, this festival celebrates the best of Cornish produce on one of the finest stretches of sand in Cornwall. Chef demonstrations, sunset music sessions, beer tastings, and champagne and oyster bars run across three days.
Free entry to the main food festival, with ticketed music events in the evenings. It’s the kind of event where you end up staying far longer than planned — sampling local cheeses, watching a chef break down a whole fish, then settling in for live music as the sun drops behind the headland.
