The event has roots that run all the way back to 1981, bringing world class international surf competitions to Newquay’s Fistral Beach and the top names in live music to Watergate Bay. Over the years, more than 50,000 people have attended, with headlining duties having previously fallen to Catfish and the Bottlemen, the Chemical Brothers and George Ezra.
