The 26th and 27th of July this year welcomes the return of south west Scotlands Wickerman Festival near Dundrennan for a twelfth year. The festival takes it name from the festival site, which was the location of the 1973 film The Wicker Man, and the party culminates with the spectacular burning of a towering 40ft Wickerman.
The two day event will see acts as diverse as disco legends Chic feat. Nile Rodgers, Primal Scream, Public Service Broadcasting, The Enemy, KT Tunstall, Dexys, Bellowhead, Admiral Fallow, Dreadzone, King Charles, Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire, Holy Esque, Waylayers & North Tyneside Steelband and many more, as well as well as a host of dance acts which features Hacienda icon Greg Wilson and a host of adult and child friendly activities such as cinema, fun fair, circus entertainment, grass sledging, mountain biking and array of arts and craft activities scattered throughout its fields.
