Fyne Ales will be welcoming visitors back to FyneFest this June, its award-winning, family-friendly, beer, food, and music festival in Glen Fyne, Argyll.
The brewery, established in 2001, has been hosting the three-day camping festival on its farm in Argyll since 2010, and this year promises to be the best festival yet, with more music, beer, and food than ever before. The event will run from 2nd-4th June.
“We’ve been brewing in Scotland for 22 years, so we know good beer” said managing director Jamie Delap. “That’s why we work with the best the UK has to offer, alongside an exciting international line-up, to bring you a beer board you won’t forget.”
Among the breweries already confirmed for the festival are Fierce Beer, DEYA, and Siren, as well as FyneFest newcomers Sureshot, Full Circle, and Wiper and True. The festival will also have rock stars of the low and no category Mash Gang on draught, several world-class ciders, and, for the first time, a margarita truck.
“Despite being run by a brewery, FyneFest has a lot more to offer than just beer,” said Fyne Ales head of marketing, Aidy Fenwick. “We’ve increased the activities on offer this year, providing festival-goers with all their favourite talks, walks, tours, yoga, and bingo, while adding a whole host of activities for kids of all ages, a charity run to our Walkers Bar, and much more.”
Across three stages, visitors can expect a mix of talented local artists, festival regulars, and high-profile bands performing.
“We’ve really upped the ante this year with our biggest programme of music to date,” said musical director, Barney Strachan. “We’re excited to bring some great new faces and fresh talent to the festival, mixing it up with some nailed-on crowd favourites to bring you more, without losing what is so special about FyneFest.”
In addition to the live acts, BBC Radio Scotland and BBC 6 Music DJ, Vic Galloway will introduce the Friday and Saturday evening music programmes, including Bombskare, who are back by popular demand, and FyneFest newcomers Tom McGuire and The Brassholes, Pictish Trail, and Miracle Glass Company.
There will also be dozens of street food vendors, including local legends Loch Fyne Oysters and Edinburgh favourites
