Wigtown Shindy music festival 14th to 17th august 2025


Wigtown Shindy 2025


The Shindy is back for it's 5th year and still over 4 days from Thursday 14th August to Sunday 17th August, with more live performances and a mix of styles.

If that's not enough, the fully licenced bar now has a wider selection of local beers, ciders and spirits and the big marquee will stave off the variety of summer weather.


To add to the fun this year we will be adding in some daytime activities starting from 2pm, so even more for you to do throughout the day!
