Arbroath Sea Fest is heading back to the town for another year, with this August’s event promising to be even bigger and better.
The event will take place on August 9 and 10, and gives people a chance to sample the coastal town’s rich maritime heritage.
“After the breathtaking success of last year’s weekend-long event, we’re pulling out all the stops to ensure this year’s two-day programme of seaside celebrations is packed full of even more fun, even more live music and even more things to see and do,” said chairman Marco Macari.
“We have a few surprises planned for this year’s event and we’re always looking for new ideas.
“If anyone has any thoughts about activities or events we could include in Sea Fest 2014, please contact our event manager, Eleanor Whitby, by emailing Eleanor@redpepperevents.com.”
More than 25,000 people flocked to the 2013 Sea Fest, ensuring a large tourism boost for the area.
Councillor Alex King, a member of the Sea Fest committee said: “Sea Fest has well and truly established itself as a super day out for all the family and attracts visitors from near and far.
“Last year’s record-breaking crowds were great news for Arbroath and the surrounding area, not only because so many people came along and had a great time, but because many of them used their visit as an excuse to see more of Arbroath, boosting the local economy and further enhancing our town’s reputation as a must-visit destination.”
