Wickerman

Wickerman started off a bright, sunny event. With some seriously sunburnt punters! By the 3rd day however it had returned to being very Scottish with a constant drizzle and fog decending on the field... to the point where you knew the Wickerman was there... somewhere... it was just hard to see without squinting.

Bands old and new entertained the thousands of happy festival goers (alcohol cancels out the effect of yucky weather... fact!) Tony Christie in particular going down a treat on the main stage, with multiple generation of families dancing and singing along.

The scooter tent played host to mostly heavier bands, highlights being The Buzzcocks, Undertones and The Sex Pistol Experience.

The festival does a fantastic job of catering to most musical tastes and welcomes the little ones, making it a perfect festival choice for everyone from teenagers to families and the more mature music lover.

This coupled with the stunning location in Kircudbright makes it one of the best mid size festivals around!
