About Falmouth Week
Friday 7th - Sunday 16th August 2026
Falmouth has something for everyone! With a great mix of activities, shopping, and dining, there’s plenty to keep you busy around town. You’ll find full details on local shops, places to eat and drink, and accommodation over on the official Falmouth website.
At the heart of it all is the sailing. Falmouth Week offers a racing programme that challenges the most competitive sailors, while keeping a fun and friendly feel that welcomes families and less experienced sailors alike. The regatta is organised by the Port of Falmouth Sailing Association (PoFSA), a partnership of Falmouth’s six local sailing clubs. Head to the sailing week page for more information.
Onshore, Falmouth Week has grown into so much more than sailing. Thanks to our amazing sponsors and partners, we now offer a full schedule of daytime and evening entertainment throughout the town, from family activities on The Moor to live music each night at the Waterfront Marquee. Find out more on the shoreside events page.

Trains
When arriving by train, change at Truro and take the Maritime Line, a twice hourly rail service between Truro and Falmouth. Journey time is approximately 20 minutes.
Please be aware that the service may be busier than usual and allow enough time to travel by train.
We recommend that Falmouth Docks station is used where possible as a managed queuing system will be implemented.
Click here to plan your journey and check the timetable for the last train. All services will follow their usual timetables.
Please be aware that Falmouth Town Station will be closed on Wednesday 12th August. This is due to the Falmouth Docks Station having a longer and therefore safer station platform and better management systems in place for the large number of visitors we expect. When booking, please ensure your ticket is to Falmouth Docks rather than Falmouth Town as all train services will terminate at Falmouth Docks Station.
