About the Festival

The 2017 Arts by the Sea festival will take place on the 14th to the 21st of October. It is a 8-day celebration of the arts with a weekend of free outdoor events throughout the town. The festival is focused on programming inclusive and accessible events across a range of disciplines, many of which will be free and unrestricted. The festival is delivered by Bournemouth Borough Council with the support of Arts Council England.

Venues for the 2017 festival encompass Bournemouth’s gardens, beachfront and pier, as well as over a dozen small gig spaces, theatres, libraries and cafes which participate in the Fringe. The theme for this year is ‘Plastic Beach’, which invites artists, Fringe organisers and creative partners to explore the tension between ecology and industry.
