About

Join us as we kick off the First Festival Saturday in style with three fantastic bands. We have Culla, an amazing upbeat and lively trad band with roots in the Western Isles and Mainland.

Fuaim a dynamic Irish and Scottish trad/folk duo bringing rich harmonies, driving rhythms, and timeless melodies to life.

Returning to Fèis again as festival favourites are the Midgies Ceilidh Band, who will be sure to get everyone going on the dancefloor!

Be there in good time to catch all three amazing bands!
