DART MUSIC FESTIVAL 2024

It might be a rainy old Monday after an amazing weekend of sunshine at The Sail Loft, but we aren't letting it dampen our spirits, as we are busy preparing for the amazing Dart Music Festival this weekend!
This fabulous annual 3-day Festival is now in its 25th year with over 100 performances spanning almost every musical genre, the festival offers an eclectic mix of orchestral, rock, choral, blues, opera, folk, and jazz performances at a variety of indoor and outdoor venues all over Dartmouth, and even better it’s all FREE to listen to! The Dart Music Festival’s motto is "Music for All" and since its inception in 1998, the Festival has attracted thousands of visitors and has become one of the stars in Dartmouth’s calendar, appealing to old and young alike.
The Sail Loft Dartmouth will be home to a number of hugely talented musicians over the weekend, starting with Giles & Amber at 6.30pm on Friday evening - warming up the crowd before Lost Natives, South Devon's premiere party band, return to the The Sail Loft delivering a powerful collection of anthems, floor fillers and hits from the 70s through to the 20s from 8pm! Please note we will only have one sitting for Pizza's this Friday - 6pm - so book your table now to avoid disappointment!
Saturday & Sunday we are thrilled to announce it is a SoSlam takeover at the Sail Loft!. This not for profit record label comes down to Dartmouth from Essex en masse every year, and you will be able to see their acts and chat to them all weekend The Sail Loft. Come and join us and spend some time with this ridiculously talented, super friendly group of musicians and bands. For the full line-up don't forget to buy your DMF Official Programme from Dartmouth Community Bookshop, Compass Books (Bayards Cove), The Flavel Arts Centre or Kingswear Post Office and Store.
