What is Tunes in the Dunes?
It’s a brand new festival, set on the beautiful golden sands of Perranporth beach in Cornwall. With a back drop of scenic cliffs and sand dunes, this will be a truly unique event where you can enjoy an ice cold beverage with your feet in the sand and the ocean only a stone’s throw away.
Born from the incredible live music that has been happening at The Watering Hole, the UK’s only venue on a beach, we sit back and prepare to be taken away by the magic that Tommy Job & the team can bring to us this year for the festivals 5th year… This is a one of a kind event for Perranporth, not to be missed. The event will take place on the May 24-26th 2019
The Beach
With three miles of golden sands, Perranporth beach is a spectacular playground for the whole family. Take a surf in some of the best waves in the country or swim in the natural tidal pool at Chapel Rock. It’s the perfect place to watch the sun go down at the end of the day!
The best hangout spot has got to be the UK’s only bar on the beach, currently ranked in the top 10 beach bars in the world, The Watering Hole! Why not chill outside on the benches overlooking the Atlantic ocean gazing over one of the best views in the world. Check out the legend stage outside where you can enjoy an ice cold beverage and some amazing beach BBQ. Check it out – thewateringhole.co.uk
If you want to check out the best of the coast line, take a walk on one of Cornwall’s awesome coastal paths. Perranporth sits between St Agnes & Holywell which both offer scintillating views!

If you want to camp in style why not grab yourself a Hobbit hut.
”You won’t need to go on a quest to find added luxuries as these heated, lockable huts
come with power sockets and lighting, as well as a mirror, bedside table and a wellies
stand. Campfire furniture and a fire pit and tops off the outdoor/indoor experience.”

This will be suited mainly for people coming from Truro, St. Agnes and Threemilestone routes. We will be using the car park just behind Co-op.
