ROOFTOP raves and boat parties are just two of the events which will take place as part of a new music festival in Newquay this summer.
The Beach Break Live festival, which has been held in South Wales for the last three years, says it will take over the streets, bars, clubs and beaches of Newquay and transform the entire resort into the ultimate festival mash up.
It claims the five-day festival, from June 20 to 24, will be the first UK music holiday, embracing the resort's businesses as part of the event.
Big names have already been lined up for the bash including Jake Bugg, Devlin and Lucy Rose.
Revellers will be treated to a main stage on Fistral Beach, as well as secret sets in greasy spoons, feverish DJ's in classic clubs, hidden rooftop raves, beach discos and boat parties.
Glamping, camping and caravans will be available for those wanting the traditional festival experience, while others are encouraged to stay at accommodation within the resort.
Ian Forshew, Beach Break Live founder, said: "The festival world is changing; we need and want to bring our ticket holders more than just musicians on a stage.
"Beach Break Live has always had its community and the experience at its heart and over the years we have grown to become one of the biggest festivals in the UK.
"Now we're playing the game changer, we're bringing something that no one else can or will, we're transforming not just Newquay but the whole experience, I cannot wait for what is set to be the ultimate music holiday."
Beach Break Live said the event would bring significant income into Newquay and is working closely with the Newquay town council, Newquay BID and all the town's businesses, clubs, pubs and the wider community to ensure the event benefits the everyone involved.
Eve Wooldridge, BID manager, said: "We are working with Beach Break Live this year to ensure that the event is beneficial to all businesses across Newquay from hotels to retailers.
"We want to make sure that businesses understand the event and how they can get involved to maximise on the additional footfall that will be in Newquay for the event.
"The concept of the event has changed and the organisers want it to work for Newquay and we have to embrace this opportunity."
