Weekend tickets are priced at £165 and offers entry to all 5 concerts, 3 late night festival clubs and all workshops and master classes.

To make stewarding easier all concerts will require the ticket holder to wear/display a Festival wristband. Depending on availability, some individual concert tickets will go on sale in due course.

This year’s Festival Club will again take place in the downstairs bar at The Arch Inn. Weekend ticket holders have free entry to the Club. If you have a wristband from one of that day’s concerts, entry will cost £10 per person. If you have no wristband of any sort, entry to the club will cost £20 per person. (What greater incentive do you need to buy a weekend ticket?)

Accommodation

This event does not have camping but there are a number of hotels, hostels and guest houses in Ullapool which are all supporting the festival.
