Falmouth comes alive with the arrival of one of the largest sailing regattas in the south west this month.

The Henri-Lloyd Falmouth Week (11^th – 19^th August) hosts more than 450 yachts racing in a range of competitive classes in the Carrick Roads and Falmouth Bay.

As well as the action on the water, there is a lively programme of shore side events including live music, a carnival, arts and crafts, theatre productions, a climbing wall and the Animal Bike Display.

Special highlights include The Blades, the only aerobatic airline, who will provide a spectacular daredevil display over the harbour on Wednesday 15^th and the Fireworks Spectacular which will light up the skies on Friday 17^th.
