Boardmasters
The event staged in Cornwall is one of the biggest of its kind in the UK
Boardmasters Festival is an annual event held in Newquay, now attended by almost 60,000 people each year from across the globe. The 2024 Boardmasters Festival will take place from August 7 to August 11.
Headliners for the 2024 festival are Stormzy, Chase & Status and Sam Fender. The line-up also features The Streets, Maisie Peters, Ghetts, and Professor Green.
As well as the live music, there will be surfing, BMX and skateboarding competitions. Boardmasters is split over two sites with the majority of the music performances take place around two miles North of Newquay, near Watergate Bay, while events like the men's Pro 5 Star WQS surf competition are held on Fistral Beach.
Both the 2019 and 2020 festivals had to be cancelled - the first due to severe weather and the second because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
