Fisherman's Friends to host festival

THE Fisherman’s Friends are thrilled to announce that in 2026 they will be hosting their very own Fisherman's Friends Festival, celebrating Cornwall right in the heart of the Duchy.

They are inviting fans old and new to join them for a feast of top class music, entertainment, friendship and fun over at Stithians Showground, near Penryn.

The desire to hold a special gathering close to home in Cornwall has been on the Fisherman’s Friends minds for some time. While still holding down their day jobs, the group regularly sell out venues across the UK and are bursting out of tents at local festivals. Huge crowds trying to squeeze into the tiny streets of Port Isaac has made it impossible to continue with performances on the harbour. After two films, Top 10 albums, a musical, a TV documentary and a book the next logical step was a bigger tent at their own festival!
