About this event

An evening of traditional sea shanties and Cornish songs featuring four legendary groups!

Are you ready to set sail for an unforgettable evening of music and merriment? The much-anticipated Falmouth International Sea Shanty fundraiser is back, promising to be a rollicking, rousing evening of shanties and Cornish songs.

Taking place on Saturday 1st March, from 7pm, at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall (NMMC), this popular evening will follow a theme of “Local Legends”, with performances from four renowned local groups – The Lemonaires, Month’s Advance, Acapella Moonshine, and The Oggymen.

This fundraiser is dedicated to supporting the Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival taking place from the 13th – 15th June 2025, and in turn, the festival’s principal charity partner, the RNLI. As one of Europe’s largest free nautical music festivals, the main event in June once again promises to deliver a memorable experience for all attendees.

The fundraiser offers a glimpse of the magic awaiting at June’s festival as well as the chance to win fantastic prizes generously donated by the festival venues and sponsors, as well as other local businesses. Further details on the prizes up for grabs will be released on the official social media platforms and website.
