Ilfracombe Birdman
About
The South West's wackiest event will return to Ilfracombe pier on Saturday 21st August, as brave aviators in the Round Table Birdman competition hurl themselves into the sea in the name of charity, with a £500 prize up for grabs.Ilfracombe Round Table's Birdman event is hugely popular with locals and holidaymakers alike. The all-day festival is completely free to enter and offers live music, street food, family entertainment and more. Gates open and the music starts at 12.00pm carrying on until 10.00pm. The actual Birdman contest takes place late-afternoon (as soon as the tide has reached the correct height).
Birdman is a fundraising event with all funds going to Ilfracombe Round Table, a registered charity, to support local worthy causes. Every pound raised at Birdman will make a difference to someone in need.
