Barra Fest is an exciting community music festival on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean - next stop Canada! .
The festival which is ran by Fèis Bharraigh, a well known and established traditional music tuition festival on the island, will take place in a marquee right on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean on Tangasdale Machair. The band line up features a celebration of modern traditional music with some fresh new sounds.
Barra is a small island on the southern tip of the Outer Hebrides. The remote location is idyllic with its beautiful unspoilt beaches and amazing scenery. On Barra you will be welcomed to island life with hospitality that is second to none, with a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere during the day yet at night you will find plenty crack and time for a few drams!
Barra Fest, the most westerly festival in Scotland where you will be guaranteed a good hebridean time!
