Mevagissey Shanty & Seasong Festival 2024

Founded in 2019 by Tristan Netherton of the Stuns’ls Shanty Group the Mevagissey Shanty Festival is a joyful celebration of maritime shanty singing and local heritage.
The Festival helps to boost off-peak commerce and community spirit, and, to date, has raised over £10,000 for local causes.
Now - 2024 - in its sixth year, the festival, supported by Keltek Brewery and the Mevagissey Harbour Board, features 440 singers and helps promote sustainability through education and community involvement.

The video shows more than 90 photos and 45 video takes.

These are just my own impressions being a part of Meva Fest 2024.
It was not possible to get all bands, singers and choires on video or photo - sorry to those which are not part of this video. And of course I have favorites - as you will recognise later....
So just relax and remember these wonderful days (and nights) at Mevagissey.

Thanks to all the musicians, organisers, helping hands and people in Mevagissey, Tristan Netherton and Stuns´ls.

P.s.: I am sorry about one or the other sound mistakes and sudden image changes, but I got some troubles with the videomaker program at the end.
