The first of Tenby’s two Summer Spectaculars takes place this weekend.
The open-air event features music, entertainment, stalls and food and drink and its grand finale is its 10pm fireworks display over Tenby Harbour.
The Spectaculars are organised by Tenby Round Table which took sole responsibility for the events last year.
Huge success
There was disappointment when weather conditions forced the cancellation of the first ‘Spec’ of 2023, but the second one a fortnight later proved to be a resounding success and raised £10,000 for charities and good causes.
When and where?
The first Summer Spectacular of 2024 takes place this Sunday, August 11 between 3pm and 10pm.
Event compere and DJ Steve Briers described it the day as "a simply amazing iconic enjoyable family fun event that is a pleasure to be a part of,” and added: “See you down the harbour."
