Exmouth Festival 2024

Plans are afoot for July 2024, to bring you another fun-filled celebration of creativity in Exmouth.

The feedback on the new festival format we launched in 2023 was overwhelmingly positive. Attendees told us how much they loved the variety of entertainment, the workshops and activities, the safe, family-friendly feel, and the way the whole town came to life. People moved from site to site enjoying themselves and filled Exmouth with an incredible buzz. Local businesses were busy and the whole place felt vibrant.

And most importantly, the festival was and will remain FREE!

This is the thing that makes it so special, that it is completely free for anyone to attend. Whether you are a local dropping in for a few hours, a group of mates from the area, or a family down on holiday, you can enjoy it all without it costing you anything.

While we know how much fun people had at the Imperial Rec, and those fond memories will be cherished for many years, we hope people will embrace the new festival for all it’s fun and possibilities.

While plans are still mostly under wraps for this year we can give you a few hints…

There will be … a carnivalesque opening … lots of opportunities to get dancing

… a wild beach theatre show with a renowned company … and a huge singalong

…as well as the usual fabulous circus skills workshops and shows, a huge variety of music, craft activities, urban sport, food and drink offerings and walkabout entertainers.

This year we hope to add a ‘Festival Fringe’ to the app so that local venues and groups can add their own activities.

Keep an eye on the festival website and social media (@ExmouthFestival) for programme announcements in the lead up to the event.
