• Street Food Arena, serving an eclectic mix global cuisines from some of Scotland's top street food vendors
• Artisan Markets, where you'll find melt-in-the-mouth cheeses, homemade crafts, luxury chocolates, vibrant artwork... the list goes on
• Family Entertainment, such as top-rated magicians, roaming comedy, circus workshops, stilt walkers and more
• Free Activities, Challenges and Competitions - Unique experiences tailored to friends and families of all ages, such as The Foodie Olympics, our festival scavenger hunt, and banana jousting (yes, you read that last one right).
• Eccentric Production - Aesthetic touches we doubt you'll have seen anywhere else...

Spend your afternoon perched on a deckchair soaking in live music or get stuck in with our activities and challenges spread throughout site.

Whichever way you want to spend it, it's a weekend for taking a step back and enjoying shared moments with your favourite people. Settle in, explore, and discover something new.
