Set within the spectacular Northumberland coastal landscape, Seahouses is nowadays famous as the departure point for boats to the Farne Islands nature reserve, and as a sea-activity centre.

Spectators can view events on the natural amphitheatre of Harbour Hill against the backdrop of the colourful harbour and the Islands - one of the most unique and attractive Festival stages anywhere in the UK!

This year’s Festival celebrates the natural environment of our area - the beautiful North Northumberland coastline, wildlife and maritime heritage. Community groups, artists and historians work with the local people throughout the year on a variety of projects and events which culminate in the festival weekend.

There are a wide range of events and performers – with music, dance, food, children’s events, workshops, talks, art and film– it all makes for an entertaining, educational and action-packed weekend.

Most of the Festival programme is free, although some of the events do have a small cover charge. Parking is available, and there’s a wide variety of accommodation to suit all budgets. Treat yourself to a weekend at Seahouses Festival, and we’ll look forward to welcoming you to our lovely village by the sea.
