Visitors and locals will be welcomed to take part in and enjoy the Arran Festival of Food and Drink at venues across Arran over 10 days from the 13th – 22nd September 2024.
This year's festival will see a mix of larger foodie events, festival menus and collaborations by some of Arran’s favourite hospitality providers. There will also be farm tours, special offers, and a showcase of produce grown on Arran. Headline events include BBQ and Music at The Douglas Hotel on the 21st and ‘Harvest Fest’ at Bellevue Farm is on the 22nd of September, the last day of the festival
The theme of this year's festival is ‘Scran Stories.’ Events and menus will focus on sustainability, community and collaboration, and knowledge.
The Isle of Arran is one of Scotland’s most accessible islands being just 55 minutes by CalMac ferry from Ardrossan which itself is less than an hour away from Glasgow. This year’s festival sponsor Stagecoach Buses offer a good service between the island’s villages.
