What's it all about?
Each year the harbour plays host to an event celebrating all things nautical. We aim to showcase as many of the different activities that take place on the river as possible – including dinghy sailing, yachts, workboats, powerboats, paddleboarding, angling, RNLI lifeboats, jetskis, flyboards, and hovercraft to name a few. Several exciting visiting and resident vessels will also be open for tours on Town Quay.
In addition to the activities on the water, local clubs, businesses and organizations are showcased along the riverfront.
The 2025 event will be held across two days on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th of July 2025.
Apply to be a riverfront stall holder.
We would love to showcase your club, society, or business at this year’s festival. You can attend for just one day, or for both, as you prefer. We do ask that those attending for both days pack away their stall on Saturday and set up again on Sunday morning.
With regret, we are unable to host food / drink / catering stalls, but many local craft businesses, charities, and clubs are already keen to be involved.
If you would like to apply, please complete the form below indicating how many pitches you would like and for which days. We also ask please that you upload a copy of your Public Liability Insurance certificate.
Places will be allocated to those applications received by 1st May 2025, but the process will remain open beyond that date for a place on the reserve list.
We will endeavour to provide you with the number of pitches requested, though we do reserve the right to alter your allocation depending on availability.
