Polperro Festival of Music and Arts

Polperro Fishermen’s Choir
Tuesday 5th August
Catch this much-loved choir singing by the sea in East Looe – a gorgeous setting for a magical evening. Even better, it’s all in support of the RNLI, and just one of many RNLI-linked events happening throughout summer.
