Polperro used to hold the festival on the 10th July to celebrate its Patron Saint, St Peter. On the eve of the festival a bonfire was built on the beach. This was the Solstice fire, originally held on mid-summers night, but changed when the calendar was altered in 1751.
This annual community event last held in 2013 included a programme of live music and was run by volunteers for the benefit of this historic Cornish village and it's surrounding environment.
