What the organisers say

Inspired by the freedom, adventure and creativity of surfing and music, Boardmasters was born in 1981. The five-day event is situated across two stunning locations in Cornwall – UK surfing mecca, Fistral Beach, where world class International Surf Competitions take place, and the most stunning location in the country to watch live music, Watergate Bay.

A group of people are dancing in a field.
