Mevagissey Feast week - 2026 28th June to 4th July
Each year at the end of June, Mevagissey celebrates Feast Week, a week of family fun, music, and floral dances through the streets. There has always been a celebration in Mevagissey, dating back hundreds of years. Originally celebrations were held in December, though this was a busy period for fishermen. In 1752, Mevagissey adopted St Peter as its patron saint and has celebrated on 29th June ever since. Today the whole village takes part with plenty of singing and dancing, as well as food and drink. Along with boat races, children's entertainment, competitions and parades, there is also a large fireworks display.
