About
Our festival showcase is the highlight event of the Foyle Maritime Festival and this year we’ve dreamed up a beautiful collage of sights and sounds inspired by the festival theme ‘Beyond Blue’.
A unique choral event entitled ‘A Dusk Chorus’ will begin proceedings at 8pm when a selection of choirs and folk groups sing collectively along the banks of the Foyle. As dusk descends the quays will transform into a vibrant theatrical riverscape with specially lit Tall Ships anchoring out in the river creating a stunning backdrop for a bespoke light and fire show commencing at 9pm.
Experience a night filled with dazzling lights, roaring fires, majestic tall ships, vibrant fireworks, flying fish and colourful illuminated sea creatures. Let us take you on a journey that stretches beyond blue, beyond the horizon and immerses you in a world where the power and poetry of the ocean is celebrated.
Don’t miss this breathtaking event that promises to captivate and inspire.
