Autumn Tide Festival

Experience: Tresco | Events

Autumn Tide Festival returns this October as a week-long celebration of food, art, and culture, inspired by the changing season across the Isles of Scilly.

As the days cool, savour seasonal island dishes and cosy evenings by the fire. Each day brings new opportunities to explore the autumnal landscape through garden walks, sandbar crossings, and many more experiences.

Led by islanders, artisans, and nature lovers, the event offers something for everyone from freshly caught seafood and locally distilled spirits to refreshing sea swims and live island music. Small in size but rich in experience, the Isles of Scilly come alive during Autumn Tide.
