Explore the very best of Falmouth and Cornwall with local events and celebrations. From exploring the darkest, deepest depths of the Maritime Museum with Monsters of the Deep, to food festivals a long the cornish coastline, there's plenty to plan and do during your visit with us.
Featuring a dynamic line-up of authors, poets and storytellers, it will take place throughout the town and sets out to celebrate all the things we're most passionate about: books, sharing ideas, and bringing people together.
The line up includes Dawn French, Monique Roffey, Mark Jenkin and more. Check out the full line up and activities here .
You can expect a festive land train, an artificial ice rink larger than ever before, snowy scenes through the main streets, live bands and choir performances, vintage food, drink and games stalls, fairground rides and much more!
Running from 11am – 6pm Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th December, this is the weekend to come into town!
Take a deep breath and plunge down to the dark murky depths of the ocean and discover the monsters that lurk beneath. Are there krakens with tentacles two miles long and giant sharks as big as skyscrapers?
Become a 19th century pioneer scientist aboard HMS Challenger and advance our understanding of the sea. Handle real objects, try out the microscopes and understand what it felt like to be an explorer aboard a floating laboratory.
Progress to the modern day and discover how today’s scientists explore the seas aboard submersibles, going deeper and further into uncharted waters. Get lost amongst specially selected specimens, the real monsters of the deep – more beautiful and fantastical than any of us could have imagined.
Exhibition running until Dec 22
