VisitScotland Dumfries & Galloway Guide 2019-2020

Very proud to see the festival listed in the VisitScotland Dumfries & Galloway and Greater Glasgow & The Clyde Valley 2019-2020 Guides, 100,000 of which are printed and distributed throughout Scotland and the UK as well as being available as e-Brochure downloads from the VisitScotland website.

With bookings already in from Holland, Germany, France, USA, Canada and Brazil for this year's event, no doubt because of our fantastic reputation :) but not least because of our amazing website and social media channels (huge thanks to Nathon Jones), we wanted to raise the profile of the event specifically with visitors from the UK and Scotland and we're delighted to be working with VisitScotland this year to acheive that.

Not only are the guides available in all major tourist information outlets in the Central Belt, South Scotland and the north of England but they are also available for download direct from the VisitScotland website, allowing us to reach an even larger audience.

Outstanding sponsorship support from Five Kingdoms Brewery

Serving local produce ensures that the project supports local businesses and the local community. A huge favourite are the beers from Five Kingdoms Brewery which are brewed in Isle of Whithorn. We are hugely grateful to Alastair and his team for their very generous support for this year's festival.

Workshops at this year's festival

With so many outstanding musicians in Newton Stewart this weekend it would be foolish not to take full advantage, and we've done just that with a superb programme of traditional music workshops which are included as part of the Weekend Pass ticket, £10 per adult or £Free for under 25s.
