Devonport Naval Base will throw open its gates to an estimated 30,000
visitors, the British Fireworks Championships (August 11-12), the Sutton Harbour Festival (July 25 - August 4) and city centre favourite, Britain's biggest free entry farmers market Plymouth Flavour Fest (August 14-16).
There's a packed programme at the Plymouth Theatre Royal and the Plymouth
