Day One: Harbourfest by Rosehill
Day Two: Pride By The Harbourside by NEAD

Whitehaven Weekender is a new two-day celebration of music, creativity and community, created through a partnership between the teams behind Harbour Fest (ROSEHILL) and Pride by the Harbourside (NEAD CIC).

Taking place across the harbourside on Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th August 2026, it’s set to be a joyful, inclusive weekend for locals and visitors alike.

Across the weekend, you can expect free events, performances and activities, alongside big moments worth planning your day around.
