   About hebceltfest

Fabulous four days of music featuring top international artists set against the backdrop of the glorious Gaelic culture and Hebridean heritage.

What makes this festival more special than your average festival is that it is true reflection of the culture and heritage of its homebase; the Hebrides. Outward looking and inclusive as all Hebrideans are, this event is brought to you by a number of dedicated enthusiasts. Staged around Lewis and Harris the festival team are assisted by community groups and organisations, businesses and individuals throughout the area making this truly a community event.

The reputation of the festival is now legendary, a fantastically warm and enthusiastic audience who welcome home family and friends for the festival makes this event the biggest homecoming party of the year!

Interesting to see that you have the Sleepy Cafe Band at your festival this year.

I had them as part of the Lewis & Harris Night which I organised for Celtic Connections (perhaps that's where you heard them first). Lovely lads, all of them and I remember them chatting to you at the Festival Club after our gig.

But we're bringing a peedie bit o Orkney to you :)

Besides, you're far too busy - you've got a festival to organise!

Aye, its a really great line-up this year in May - don't know how the heck we'll accomodate them all. Bob is currently wrestling with a room plan of the Stromness Hotel ..... and greetin.

Can't wait for July - it suddenly seems no that far off! Hope its all coming together.
