40th Annual Sea Music Festival

© MysticSeaport.org

Performers come from around the world and across the United States for one of the world’s premier sea music events, featuring four days of workshops, concerts, hands-on demonstrations, and a scholarly symposium – all celebrating the music of the sea. From songs of the golden age of sail to contemporary compositions, the Sea Music Festival features a wide variety of sea music both modern and traditional, a children’s stage with special performances for families, and demonstrations of maritime work songs – or chanteys – aboard Mystic Seaport Museum’s historic vessels.

Daytime concerts, workshops, and the Symposium are included with Museum admission. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evening concerts require the purchase of a separate ticket. Combination passes are available for this event, including Two-Day and All-Access.
