The Exmouth Festival will return for its 27th year later this month.

The free four-day event will take place across several locations in the town this summer, instead of at the Imperial Recreation Ground, due to rising costs.

Beginning on Friday 28 July, it will last until Monday 31 July and feature a variety of live music, arts and crafts, dance workshops and more at venues including the Strand and Manor Gardens.

An Exmouth Town Council spokesperson said: "We're excited to unveil the new-look festival – this year the event is spread across several stages in the town, allowing us to bring you a bigger and more varied programme of entertainment across four days. 

"From rock, pop and blues to indie, folk, swing, ska and punk, from choirs and brass bands to ceilidh and sea shanties, there's something for everyone. There are also lots of ways to get involved, with arts and crafts activities and music and dance workshops, all for free. 

"Daily theatre, circus shows, talks, films and all manner of entertainment will be happening across Exmouth, so get stuck in.

"Although it's free to attend, it's not free to put on, so please consider donating to help us cover our costs."
