The Gloucester Tall Ships Festival will make a magnificent return to the historic Gloucester Docks, promising a revamped and vibrant experience for visitors over the Spring Bank Holiday Weekend.

The festival, which has been curated by a new creative team from Gloucester City Council and Gloucester BID in partnership with Canal & River Trust and Gloucester Quays, is set to celebrate the global connectivity of the city through captivating sights, sounds, and smells from across the globe. While the iconic tall ships will take centre stage, this year’s focus expands to include live music, immersive performances, and a deep dive into the adventures that have taken place in the Docks across its nearly 200-year history.
