Tropical Pressure is the intimate and authentic festival of the summer. Each July, only a few thousand fortunate ticket-holders visit our stunning site overlooking the majestic sea near Porthtowan Beach in Cornwall for a positive, dance-inducing, and life-affirming experience.
At TP, we passionately curate a one-of-a-kind lineup of music, food, and workshops that celebrate the vibrant cultures of Latin America, Africa, and the Caribbean.
