2016 Cornish Bluegrass Festival

The 13th annual Bluegrass Festival to be held at Hendra Holiday Park, Newquay, Cornwall, TR8 4NY

16th, 17th & 18th September 2016

We are proud to promote ourselves as a festival for all of the family – a festival with a difference. So, what about the music? With local, national and international performers.

We try to provide a wide range of Bluegrass styles by performers young and not so young! Our performances are staged in the cabaret room and a new larger performance marquee all conveniently situated in the festival ‘village’. Unfortunately we can’t control the weather but we can guarantee quality music and a fantastic atmosphere. For the players amongst you, we hold workshops for various instruments for players of differing abilities that are free to festival attendees. Sim Daley, the renowned mandolin maker, will also be on site throughout the weekend to do instrument setups and repair consultations.

Then there is our hugely popular Sunday morning Gospel session, followed by a Slow Band jam with Gary Payne and friends, the best Sunday morning money can’t buy. And once you've finished you can round of your weekend with a succulent pork roll from our friends at Kernow Hog Roast.

So why not come down and sample our sun, sea, sand, surf and singing. Cornwall has so much more to offer than pasties and clotted cream so come and discover our Cornish Bluegrass festival for yourselves and experience the best Cornwall has to offer in Bluegrass music.

All this for a Ticket price of £49.00 for a full weekend.
