The original buoy band from Cornwall is sailing into Australia for the very first time!

The Fisherman’s Friends, Britain’s beloved folk group from the picturesque fishing village of Port Isaac - familiar to many as the setting for the hit TV series Doc Martin - bring their eagerly anticipated and heartwarming live show Down Under, filled with rich harmonies, seafaring spirit and irresistible charm.

Singing traditional shanties and stirring originals, their rousing set includes fan favourites like “No Hopers, Jokers & Rogues,” “South Australia,” “John Kanaka,” and “A Sailor Ain’t a Sailor.”

From their humble beginnings singing on the harbour to the stages of Glastonbury and Royal Albert Hall to chart-topping albums, two hit feature films, and now a major musical, this group of lifelong friends has become a global sensation.
