Last updated 22nd May 2023
Organisers of Newquay's Boardmasters Festival are looking to gather feedback from local residents, as they look to develop and grow the event.
People can register to attend drop-in sessions at the Atlantic Hotel, which are taking place today (Monday 22 May) and tomorrow (Tuesday 23 May).
A letter from those behind the annual festival said: "As we look ahead to developing and growing Boardmasters in future years, we wish to gather feedback and any concerns from residents, to ensure that these can be considered within our initial plans at an early stage.
"Therefore, whilst the team will be able to answer questions regarding Boardmasters 2023, we are particularly keen to discuss our plans to develop and grow the show from 2024 with residents."
Organisers of Boardmasters say the event in 2022 generated approximately ÂŁ40 million for the local and wider economy of Cornwall.
28% of their suppliers and traders were independent businesses based in Cornwall.
