Refugee Festival Scotland is an annual celebration of creativity, culture and community.
Every summer we share a packed programme of exciting events organised by groups, organisations and individuals across the country. Our unique festival showcases the art, food, music, language, customs and ideas that people bring with them when they settle in Scotland.
This year’s festival theme is RISE.
Everyone is welcome to take part!
