+ Angling competitions through the month of September
This is a unique event offering a free-to-enter weekend family festival and month long angling competitions. The main theme of the event will accent Marine Conservation and appreciation of the sea and our beautiful beaches. The Bexhill Festival of the Sea is one of the biggest and best festivals of the sea and sea angling in the UK. The event is a huge draw for families, with people of all ages in attendance.
The Festival has two parts - angling competitions based at Bexhill Sea Angling Club plus an open festival on the stunning jubilee lawns in front of the iconic De La Warr Pavilion.
The festival showcases local traders selling delicious food dishes prepared by top chefs from a host of countries and cultures which are sure to get your taste buds tingling. As well as food and drink, there will be plenty of unique shopping and gift ideas and seaside focused stalls.
Demonstrations on the art of filleting, preparing and cooking many types of sea fish will be made throughout the weekend.
There’s also plenty to keep the family occupied with a variety of games and activities.
