Timed to coincide with Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival, this sailing event attracts classic cruisers, racers and working boats with Bermudan, gaff and lug rigs.

Falmouth Classics features three days of enjoyable racing and a spectacular Parade of Classic Boats and the Small Classic Boat Parade. Since it began, in 1987, Falmouth Classics has steadily grown to be one of the largest Classic sailing events in the UK.

Falmouth is recognised as having some of the best sailing waters in the world in the Carrick Roads and Falmouth Bay. There are also many vantage points for spectators to view the events.

The Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival takes place at the same time and over 65,000 visitors flock to Falmouth.
