The Falmouth Internation Sea Shanty Festival is underway, with the first groups already appearing on The Moor to wow the crowds at the Seven Stars marquee.

This afternoon saw a rotating roster of groups take to the stage to perform all the old favourites for the early festivalgoers.

The festival is set to continue all weekend, with performances in venues throughout the town, including the main stages at Custom House Quay and Event Square, as well as the Packet's gala night at the Princess Pavilion on Saturday evening.
