Cornwall Swim Festival 2025 – A Celebration of Water, Wellness and Community
This November, Trevassack Lake will play host to something truly special. In partnership with Cornish Kelpie, we’re proud to welcome swimmers, families and friends to the very first Cornwall Swim Festival on Sunday 2nd November 2025.
The festival is designed to celebrate the simple joy of swimming, with distances ranging from 50m dashes to 1500m endurance swims. It’s not about competition – it’s about fun, confidence and the uplifting feeling of being part of a community that loves the water.
But the day doesn’t stop at the shoreline. Around the lake, you’ll discover:
- Outdoor brands including Dryrobe, Finisterre, Peth and Waterhaul
- Live music and entertainment to keep the energy high
- Delicious food trucks and our lakeside café
- Talks and workshops, including a keynote from Professor Mike Tipton (University of Portsmouth)
- Wellness experiences like our lakeside sauna and opportunities to hire paddleboards and kayaks
For the Children’s Sailing Trust, hosting the festival is about more than a single day of activity. Every ticket sold helps us continue our mission: empowering children through time on the water. By joining us at the Cornwall Swim Festival, you’ll not only enjoy a memorable day, you’ll be directly supporting programmes that help children build confidence, resilience and joy through sailing and watersports.
So, whether you’re dipping your toes in for a 50m splash or soaking up the atmosphere from the lakeside, we’d love you to be part of this celebration of Cornwall’s swimming community.
Tickets are available now via Cornish Kelpie. Don’t miss your chance to be part of the first Cornwall Swim Festival:
