Well what a Festival ! 2019 was the best yet, despite the inclement weather. Harwich filled with music and song and the crowds turned out to watch, braving the wind and rain. So many highlights it’s hard to know what to mention, but the Saturday Night Concert was a triumph and the Massed Shanty in the Church on Sunday was superb.

We also now have a gallery of highlights from the festival plus photos from the Shanty Train on the Saturday morning.
