This year’s Cork Harbour Festival takes place from the 30th May – 8th June 2026, with the flagship Ocean to City Race taking place on Saturday 30th May. Each year, Cork Harbour Festival creates a vibrant and diverse programme of events, both on land and on the water. Organisers are invited to submit all things maritime and harbour-themed — from water-based activities and open days to talks, exhibitions, shows and guided walks. The more, the merrier.
