POSTPONED: Harwich Maritime Festival 2020
Aug 8 @ 11:00 am – 5:00 pm

POSTPONED: New date TBC

After very careful consideration, we have taken the sad decision to postpone this year’s Maritime Festival, which was due to take place on 8 August 2020, to a yet to be confirmed date in 2021.

It is not a decision we have taken lightly as the event was part of the national Mayflower 2020  celebrations and an occasion many visitors and local residents look forward to each year. However, at this very uncertain time we believe that postponing the event is the best course of action.

Many of our partners, suppliers, traders and members of the local community have already put lots of hard work into organising this year’s event and we extend our heartfelt thanks to them all.

We hope to be able to welcome everyone back to the festival in 2021.

Thank you
