Seafest Plymouth
About Seafest Plymouth
Seafest Plymouth is a weekend-long celebration of the city's deep connection to the sea, spread across the Barbican, Sutton Harbour and the wider waterfront. Fresh, sustainably caught local seafood takes centre stage, with fishmongers and traders alongside live cooking demonstrations from the region's chefs showing visitors how to make the most of the day's catch.
Run in partnership with Plymouth Sound National Marine Park, the festival pairs great food with hands-on marine conservation activities, sea life displays and entertainment for all ages. Entry is free, and it offers a genuinely local flavour of Britain's Ocean City at its most characterful.
