Bae fest 2009 

Bae Fest is a one-day FREE beach festival which will take place on Swansea Bay, South Wales on Saturday 19th September 2009. The event is in aid of charity, with worthy causes such as Action For Children, Wales Air Ambulance, RNLI and Maritime Volunteer Services nominated as beneficiaries.

Swansea Bay is a beautiful 5-mile stretch of sandy beach extending from the newly developed Maritime Quarter to the picturesque fishing village of Mumbles. The Bay itself is a relatively calm area of water with very little wave swell, perfect for the water events in the festival.

The festival itinerary includes: -

Water Events:
BSUPA Stand-Up Paddle Endurance Challenge (men’s, women’s & junior categories)
SUP Aqua Gauntlet (it’s a knock-out, SUP boarding style where he who cheats wins!)
Surfers’ Chain World Record Attempt

Land Events:
Parkour (freerunning)
Skate Park
Live Music
Surf Mart
Little Bae Fest (children’s entertainment area)
Craft Stalls
