Fun Times at the Fish Quay Festival
In a kitchen overflowing with memorabilia, Carol Alevroyianni and Richard 'Brod' Broderick reflect on their unforgettable years shaping the iconic North Shields Fish Quay Festival. From humble beginnings in 1987—born from a fisherman’s idea for a party—to becoming one of Europe’s largest free festivals, their story is one of creativity, community, and cultural transformation. Through world-class music, street theatre, and a celebration of maritime heritage, the festival left a lasting legacy that still inspires today. As they now pour their energy into the Whitley Bay Carnival, their commitment to bringing people together through art and celebration continues to shine.
