Sunshine, seafood and a soundtrack to match. The Rock Oyster Festival is back this summer, bringing its unique mix of music, food and good times to the banks of the Camel Estuary.
Taking place from 23 to 26 July on the Dinham Estate near Rock, this much-loved festival is one of the highlights of the Cornish summer. Expect long, lazy days filled with chef demos, feasting, dancing and family fun, all with that unbeatable estuary backdrop.
Foodies are in for a treat, with a roll call of top chefs hosting pop-up restaurants, banquet feasts and hands-on workshops. Alongside the food, there is a brilliant music line-up spanning laid-back acoustic sets to headline acts. This year expect big names such as Groove Armada, Scissor Sisters, Kool & the Gang, Sam Ryder and Freya Ridings.
Little ones are well looked after too, with plenty of activities and entertainment designed just for them. Think aerial acrobatics, ukulele singalongs and axe throwing, to name a few.
Whether you are there for the oysters, the tunes or the festival buzz, this is a weekend that delivers it all. Coastal charm, creative flavour and a lively festival spirit in one beautiful Cornish setting.
