Music is at the heart of Cornish culture, and we can’t wait to celebrate it in the summer of 2025 at one of the biggest maritime music concerts anywhere in Europe. Falmouth Sea Shanty festival is a must-see. Groups travel from far and wide, for an event that promises to fill the town with music and infuse Falmouth with a great community spirit.

 

At our last event we welcomed crowds of shanty fans to our private quay to sing-along to the sounds of the sea in the sunshine. The Sea Shanty Festival welcomes over 65 international groups performing across 25 different venues in Falmouth, from intimate pub settings to open-air stages. Our harbour view stage will be returning, and we’ll be announcing our headline acts soon.

Europe’s largest free nautical music festival returns to Falmouth this June and it promises to be a good old knees up.

Expect thigh-slapping, beer-swashing, shanty-singing good times as venues across Falmouth host shanty bands from around the world. As proud sponsors of the festival, our beer tent will once again be one of the main stages for this incredibly popular Falmouth event.

Head down to our private quay, where you can watch 20 fantastic acts sing the songs of the sea whilst you admire the harbour views. We’ll be serving a range of Cornish ales, beers and other beverages.

What’s more, on the Sunday our famous roast will be served in the Working Boat as usual. With the hustle and bustle of the festival going on outside, booking is essential to bag yourself a table. So, get ready to sink a few pints and start toe-tapping to the shanties!

With Falmouth already alive with the buzz of the Sea Shanty Festival, the weekend just got even better as we welcome the arrival of 2025’s Falmouth Classics. A prestigious three-day regatta of racing, parades and onshore events, this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss…

 

Since it began in 1987, Falmouth Classics has steadily grown to be one of the largest Classic sailing events in the UK. We’re so lucky to have the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy this nautical spectacle alongside the Sea Shanty festivities here on the edge of the water.

Just in time for the Sea Shanty Festival, The Greenbank makes for a wonderful vantage point. With uninterrupted views out over the harbour, this promises to be a weekend filled with all things nautical. Delight in this unique experience as 2025’s Falmouth Classics sail on by. Tap your toe to the jovial soundtrack of singing sailors, pint in hand.

Falmouth is recognised as having some of the best sailing waters in the world. From 14th to 16th June, Carrick Roads and Falmouth Bay will be full of sails of all types, shapes and colours. Ranging in size from 9ft right up to 150ft or more, these incredible vessels include the famous Falmouth Working Boats, after which our very own pub, The Working Boat, is named.

Revel in the anticipation over three days of racing, and marvel in their full glory during the Parade of Classic Boats and the Small Classic Boat Parade. A lively social programme includes the Haven and Welcome Receptions, the Classics Supper, and the Classics Maritime Village. What’s more, there’ll be rowing and sculling races, as well as public viewings of the boats.

Why not make the most of the incredible vantage point that we’re so lucky to have here at The Greenbank? Downstairs, you can grab a frosty beer or a glass of something chilled. Feeling peckish?Our talented chefs will be knocking up a range of mouth-watering dirty fries in our ‘mar-quay’. It’s weekends like this that remind us just how lucky we are here on the water’s edge.
