The B Sharp Busking Festival is back in Lyme Regis, taking over Marine Parade, Marine Theatre, Town Mill and Gun Cliff Walk for a full day of free live music and street performance.
As the region’s largest busking festival, it’s a genuine showcase for emerging talent, with young musicians and performers sharing stages alongside more experienced artists. Expect live performances, hands-on workshops and pop-up shows around every corner of the town.
With funding from Arts Council England, last year’s festival was the biggest to date, bringing more artists, more stages and more opportunities for young people than ever before. The 2025 event helped new street performers reach wider audiences, connected young musicians with professional mentors, and supported four Young Producers in creating and delivering their own events, with six Festival Assistants gaining hands-on festival production experience alongside them.
Come for the music, stay for the atmosphere. There’s no charge to attend and no reason not to wander.
