Britain's What's On Event Guide
Fisherman's Friends
Fresh from their sold-out 2026 UK dates and a hugely successful tour in Australia earlier this year, Fisherman’s Friends have announced a new UK tour for 2027.
The announcement comes as the beloved Cornish group launch the very first Fisherman’s Friends Festival in Cornwall, a landmark three-day celebration of music, maritime heritage and Cornish culture.
At a time when rising costs and industry pressures have seen many UK festivals forced to scale back, postpone or close altogether, the launch of a brand-new independent festival marks a significant achievement, underlining both the enduring appeal of Fisherman’s Friends and their commitment to championing Cornwall’s culture, community and live music scene.
For a group whose remarkable story has inspired two hit feature films and a successful touring stage musical, the new dates mark yet another chapter in an extraordinary journey that began with friends singing on the harbour in Port Isaac to raise money for local causes.
The 36-date tour will see Fisherman’s Friends perform across the UK from February through to November 2027, returning to theatres and concert halls nationwide with the humour, camaraderie and stirring harmonies that have made them one of Britain’s best-loved live acts.
Fisherman's Friends said: To be announcing another UK tour while opening our very first festival in Cornwall feels incredibly special. We never imagined when we started singing on The Platt in Port Isaac that it would lead us here. Launching a festival in Cornwall and seeing audiences continue to support live music means a great deal to us. We’re looking forward to getting back out on the road and seeing audiences around the country once again.
