We’re having a Book Fair on the first day of the Tenby Arts Festival – Saturday 19th September 2015. Please join us – meet our lovely authors, relax and listen to music while having a cup of coffee and a cake. Stay for a short poetry reading and to discover who won the children’s competition: prizes of great books kindly donated by Firefly Press.
And here’s a flavour of the second day
Sunday 20th
Sandcastle Competition
 |
 |
A perennial favourite within the festival and a great way for parents and children to take part together. Your entry does not even have to be a castle, see Captain Jack Sparrow above. So get your creative juices working and come and have fun with bucket and spade. Who knows, you might even win a prize.
Castle Beach
11am – 2pm
Free
Jazz Brunch
The Fourcroft Hotel jazz brunches are famed for the excellence of both the food and the music. This year will be no exception. The music will be supplied by the Sarah Smith Quartet. Sarah Smith on violin, Tim Smith on Rhythm Guitar, Oli Smith on Bass Guitar and Andy Mackenzie on Lead Guitar will play gypsy jazz music with fire and passion.
Good food with good music and spectacular views over Tenby Harbour – an excellent way to spend Sunday afternoon.
12 – 3pm
Tickets £15.00 in advance only from Fourcroft Hotel
Poetry Please
A free event to which all are welcome. An informal presentation of poetry readings and discussions. You are invited to bring along your favourite poem or one you have written yourself.
