Gloucester Schooner Festival
August 31
This capstone to the summer is steeped in history and jam-packed with events and opportunities to get up-close and personal with these beautiful ships. The Gloucester Schooner Festival has become a Labor Day weekend tradition for thousands of people every year and we hope you will join us in this year’s historic festivities!
The Gloucester Schooner Festival is put on by Maritime Gloucester. Every year schooners from all over travel to Gloucester Harbor to participate in a weekend like no other. Whether under sail, chartering, racing, or as a dock-side attraction, these magnificent vessels have thrilled audiences each and every year for the past 40 years.
