Conjuring Fate in full flow at The Vault Arts Centre on Saturday 7th December 2019

We've certainly hit the ground running at The Vault Arts Centre. A huge thanks to Norman, Brian and Aaron from Breakdown who played a fantastic gig on Friday night, followed by the Dynamite Kings and Conjuring Fate on Saturday night and another brilliant rock night.

Keep your eye on the Winter Programme for the next round of events, kicking off with the 12-18's Disco featuring DeeKay & Hendo on Friday 20th December, Open Mic Night hosted by Nathon Jones on Saturday 21st December and Claire Hastings & Ron Jappy on 22nd December.

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.
