GRINAGOG FESTIVAL GRINAGOG FESTIVAL 2018

The legend of the Grinagog runs deep in Devon. With hundreds of sightings off the coast of Torquay, conspiracy theorists and cult followers alike agree that this ancient sea creature and the associated tidal wave of live music, DJs and inspiration will arrive back on our shores in April 2018.

We invite you to start the festival season in style. Join us as we beckon the Grinagog at a music and arts festival that celebrates creativity, diversity and hi-jinks.

Set amongst Torquay’s breathtaking coastline and centred around the 800-year-old grounds of Torre Abbey; this is a place to immerse yourself in genre defining music, mind-blowing arts and memorable performances.

Led by Torquay's, DJ Chris Tofu (an MBE recipient no less!), and the award winning Continental Drifts (curators at Glastonbury's Shangri-La, Boomtown's Ballroom Stage, and Bestival's Caravanserai) - come discover a weekend of escapism from the humdrum of every day life.

Music lovers get up close, personal and astounded by the sounds of acoustic, electronic bass and beats, electro swing, folk, indie, jazz, reggae, rock and metal, roots, ska, urban and vintage remix.
