Falmouth Week is fast approaching and a host of brilliant acts are scheduled including The Wurzels, Reef, Bad Manners, and Craig Charles.

Falmouth Week is a major attraction for locals and visitors. With its origins as a local sailing regatta dating back at least as far as 1837, the week is an opportunity for everyone to enjoy an array of daytime and evening events in the town.
