WEATHER FAILS TO DAMPEN SPIRITS AT FUN-FILLED FESTIVAL
THOUSANDS of people turned out to celebrate Plymouth’s connection to the sea at Seafest last weekend (September 13-14).
Despite challenging weather conditions, especially on the Sunday, a fun-filled weekend of events and activities was suitably adapted - ensuring visitors could still dive in and enjoy delectable food, live music, demos and sea-inspired entertainment.
The festival, held in partnership with Plymouth Waterfront Partnership, Plymouth Sound National Marine Park and Plymouth City Council, spanned the waterfront; from the Barbican and Sutton Harbour to Mount Batten, from Tinside Lido to Trinity Pier, to the Royal William Yard and across to Mount Edgcumbe.
Seafest is supported by the businesses from the Plymouth Waterfront Partnership. The Plymouth Sound National Marine Park Horizons Project has been made possible thanks to money raised by National Lottery players, with £11.6 million of funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
