Travel & Getting to Boardmasters 2027

Boardmasters 2027 takes place at Watergate Bay and Fistral Beach in Newquay, Cornwall, from 4–8 August 2027. With thousands of festivalgoers travelling to Cornwall, planning your journey in advance is recommended.

By Train

Newquay railway station is the closest main station to Boardmasters. Services connect Newquay with the wider UK rail network, although journeys may require changes depending on where you're travelling from.

Festival shuttle services traditionally operate between Newquay and the main Boardmasters site at Watergate Bay.

Book train travel early, as services to Cornwall can be particularly busy during the festival.

By Coach

Coach travel can be one of the easiest options for getting to Boardmasters without a car. Dedicated festival coach services have operated from a number of UK towns and cities for previous editions.

2027 coach routes, departure points and prices will be added once confirmed.

By Car

The main festival site is at Watergate Bay, near Newquay, Cornwall.

Festival parking normally needs to be booked in advance, so don't rely on being able to pay for parking when you arrive.

Allow extra journey time during Boardmasters week, particularly when travelling into Newquay and around Watergate Bay.

By Air

Cornwall Airport Newquay is located close to the festival site, making flying an option for visitors travelling from elsewhere in the UK.

Check available routes and onward transport before booking, as flight schedules vary.

Shuttle Buses

Boardmasters traditionally operates shuttle services connecting key locations around Newquay with the festival.

These can be particularly useful if you're staying in Newquay rather than camping at Watergate Bay.

Full Boardmasters 2027 shuttle routes, timetables and prices will be added when they're announced.

Watergate Bay & Fistral Beach

Boardmasters operates across two main locations:

Watergate Bay – the main music festival, arenas and camping.

Fistral Beach – home to Boardmasters' surf competitions and beach activities.

The two sites are separate, so check transport arrangements before travelling between them.
