Gloucester Tall Ships Festival 2024 launches at Gloucester Brewery
Gloucester Brewery hosted the preview for the 2024 Gloucester Tall Ships Festival.
The dockside location at Warehouse 4 was the perfect venue for the celebration of the 2024 Gloucester Tall Ships Festival, which takes place from 25th-27th May.
Guests from across Gloucestershire enjoyed the new Gloucester Brewery, Gloucester Tall Ships Ale and maritime themed canapés from Coal Kitchen, also based in the Docks.
Live entertainment was provided by local performer Flora Fiora, who will be playing the main stage at Gloucester Tall Ships Festival, on Saturday 25th May.
Attendees had the chance to find out all about the new look and feel festival, organised by Gloucester City Council and partners Canal & River Trust, Gloucester Quays and Gloucester Bid, and offering everything from circus, comedy, acrobatics, theatre, workshops, two stages of live music and of course tall ships.
Event Producer Poppy Handy, said: "The festival promises to be something completely new and different for the city and the county, with tall ships centre stage and one of the most eclectic music programmes ever to be hosted in Gloucester, with 'Wellerman' headliner Nathan Evans and acts including Thrill Collins, Nordet and Apple Circus, The Old Time Sailors and more."
Alongside an impressive main stage music line-up, which features ‘Wellerman’ chart-topper Nathan Evans, and festival favourites such as Brassienda and The Old Time Sailors, the festival will offer street theatre, interactive installations, playgrounds, funfairs and a submarine.
