Foyle Maritime Festival: Boardwalk Empire, Life's A Beach

The Quay, Derry
Foyle Maritime Festival: Boardwalk Empire, Life's A Beach

About

You’ll be forgiven for thinking that you’ve arrived in Coney Island as we’ve literally created a boardwalk empire along the riverfront.

A feast for the senses, we’ve simply programmed far too much to list it all but be assured this zone will be buzzing with pop up musical performances, street theatre, arts and crafts and lots of maritime characters and sea creatures every day.

Life's A Beach

We’ve gone to town on our city beach this year, supersizing it so that even more of you can feel the sand between your toes as you relax in a deck chair and take in all the fun of the festival. Or you could build a sandcastle you decide*.

OPEN DAILY FROM 12 noon~8pm

*Please note no food, drink
