Big Tent Festival - 26/27 July 2009

Big Tent 2009 is Scotland’s biggest eco-festival and takes place Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th July.

The mighty Shooglenifty, talented Attic Lights, the amazing Chipolatas and Mr McFalls Chamber playing Martyn Bennett are just a taste of the music line-up coming your way this July. Our full details to be announced soon.

This year’s festival will include loads of new stuff like: the Climate Challenge Ceilidh, a Climate Champion’s Zone, Earth Action Talks with WWF Scotland, a Family Zone, a brand new Wood Zone, plus the return of our celebrated Food Village.

There’s going to be loads of things to do for everyone - environmental workshops, craft, storytelling, debates, poetry, renga, therapies, exhibitions, book readings, displays, great food, cookery demonstrations and of course wonderful music set against the most amazing backdrop of Falkland Palace and the East Lomond Hill. If you are looking to reduce your carbon footprint, want low carbon energy advice, need inspiration or just want to find out more about climate change then you need to be at Big Tent.

The festival is really accessible and this year we will continue to offer free shuttle buses from the railway and bus stations (so keep the car at home). The campsite is much improved from last year with a dedicated family/quiet zone, a campshop and cafe. We are just a minute away from the historic village of Falkland and even less to Falkland Estate so if you want to get out and explore more of the place then this is the weekend to do so.

If you wish to exhibit at Big Tent please contact info@centreforstewardship.org.uk and we will send you out an exhibitor’s pack.
