The 2022 Cycle Arts Festival will take place over the first week of August 2022 (1st to 7th) on the traffic-free path that travels between Paisley and Lochwinnoch.

It’s a week-long calendar of events geared towards encouraging everyone to visit this unique cycle path with arts exhibitions, live events and cycling activities. The festival will take place along 7 miles of the National Cycle Route 7, a cycle path that is designed for both walkers and cyclists.

Place Partnership at OneRen in collaboration with local arts and community partners, Sustrans and Cycling UK have developed this unique Outdoor Arts Festival for Renfrewshire.

The Festival presents a series of outdoor arts and environmental engagements which link to local places and communities to celebrate and recognise the value of our unique environments. The festival pushes boundaries of creativity in terms of what kind of activities can be delivered outside.

There’s something for everyone to experience with a range of installations, activities and performances to discover as you make your way along the path.

At Kilbarchan local artist Phillipa Tomlin creates a permanent art installation created in collaboration with local residents. It combines uplifting poetry and a permanent mural, inspired by and exploring our connection to nature, the pigeons and other birds that live along the cycle route.

Dance Artist Rod Heaslip creates ‘Strawboys’ - a vibrant and energetic outdoor pop-up performance at Elderslie and Lochwinnoch blurring the lines between traditional and contemporary dance and music.

Come along to have your bike looked over to get it up and running with Dr Bike! At Dr Bike, your bike will be checked over by a trained mechanic, who will make any on-the-spot adjustments and fixes that need doing right there and then, free of charge.

The Cycle Arts Festival and the Cycle Arts Renfrewshire Website are projects funded by Place Partnership based at OneRen, with Sustrans and Cycling UK. The Place Partnership project in Renfrewshire is funded by Creative Scotland and Renfrewshire Council through Future Paisley – the radical and wide-ranging programme of economic, social and physical regeneration using the town’s unique and internationally significant cultural and heritage story to transform the future.
