6th May 2022
Exmouth Festival is back on the Imperial Recreation Ground from 2-5 June 2022. The recently announced programme is jam-packed full of live music, circus workshops, theatre, family activities and much more.
Running across the extended bank holiday weekend you can expect a family friendly atmosphere throughout the day, with lots of activities for children to get involved in, plus a fairground for the adventure-seekers! The festival remains free for everyone to enjoy, but festival organisers ask you to consider making a donation to help cover the costs.
The music line-up features local talent such as Ruby May Spencer, The Barefoot Bandit and Not The Cowboys, alongside headliners Cut Capers from Bristol, and internationally renowned Space and Musical Youth. There’ll be no shortage of Exmouth residents of all ages on stage either, with performances from community groups RA Dance Fitness, La La Choir, and Exmouth A Capella.
On Sunday 5th June there will be a Jubilee Celebration day that has been funded by National Lottery Awards For All. This funding has allowed Exmouth Town Council to work with Open Door Exmouth and other partners, to give away 200 free meals to local families, with an invitation to join in with The Big Jubilee Lunch with food from on-site traders. Throughout the day festival goers will also be able to create Exmouth’s Greatest Masterpiece with community artist Hayley Watson, and participate in an interactive theatre show ‘The Grimm Sisters’, which will be BSL interpreted. Closing the festival weekend is the popular Exmouth swing-band All Jazzed Up.
Headliners include:
Cut Capers
9-piece Bristol band whose energetic live performance and infectious sound have won them a cult following on the British festival scene.
Space
With their world-renowned gritty edgy pop songs that captivate the imagination of the listener, Space have sold over 5 million records worldwide with album titles including “Spiders, “Tin Planet”, “Suburban Rock and Roll” and “Attack of the Mutant 50ft Kebab” along with ten top 40 singles and a host of other single releases to-date with titles including “Neighborhood”, “Female of the Species”, “Me and You Vs. The World”, “Avenging Angels”, “Dark Clouds”, and “Begin Again”.

They released a new album of reggae classics, and they continue to spread the joy of ‘Pass the Dutchie’ at gigs all over the globe.
