Polperro Festival - Polperro

Week long festival that takes place annually. Fun for all the family with music, entertainment, arts crafts and so much more.
Golowan Festival - Penzance

Golowan is an annual 10-day festival of events that culminates in a street festival on the last weekend in June where thousands attend a spectacle of giant wicker models paraded through the town, street performances, street music, theatre, and the Golowan live music and DJ Marquee. This annual event is much loved and is the biggest event in the calendar for this southwest Cornish community. It is a 35-year revival festival of the Feast of St. John and the midsummer solstice that is delivered by the whole community and has grown into one of the biggest street festivals in South England.

Shoreline Triathlon - Bude

Every late June / early July since 1991 we've run the Shoreline Triathlon from Summerleaze Beach in Bude. The event has always been a huge success with a complete cross-section of competitors from absolute beginners and first-time triathletes right through to national team athletes.

When designing this race we just looked at what Bude had to offer. The high tide bay at Summerleaze with the breakwater sheltering it from the Atlantic swell was always going to be perfect for the open water swim. The coast road out of Bude towards Widemouth Bay is both fast and hilly and with a return to Bude via the A39 it's a natural loop. The run through town and then along the canal towpath returning via Lynstone Road produces a grand finish along the Strand and then up the length of Summerleaze Car Park. Add to this a friendly atmosphere, great event T-shirts, medals for all finishers, plenty of categories and our own unique commentator and you have an event you'll want to come back to year after year.

The fastest athletes will take around an hour to complete the course with everyone finished within 2 hours.

Looe Raft Race - Looe

Organised by dedicated Looe RNLI volunteers and proudly supported by the Looe Boat Owners Association (LBOA), the Looe Raft Race is back and it’s set to be bigger, better, and wetter than ever!

One of the most popular annual events in Looe, the raft race attracts hundreds of spectators who line the Banjo Pier and quaysides on both sides of the river to catch all the action.

Watch teams navigate the river on their wildly creative and often hilariously unstable homemade rafts – it’s a unique and unforgettable family event in South East Cornwall.
