Hebridean Celtic Festival: 11th - 14th July '07

Hebridean Celtic Festival 2007The Hebridean Celtic Festival is a massive international Celtic music festival, which takes place annually in Stornoway on Lewis, in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. The biggest headliners in years gone by have been Runrig, and Van Morrison. Many other acts take part in the event, including local bands, solo artists and visiting International artists.

Organised largely by a dedicated volunteer force this unique event established in 1996 has seen phenomenol growth over the intervening years and is renowned for its fabulous 'party' atmosphere being a true homecoming for "islanders in exile" around the globe. This year's line up includes The Proclaimers, Seth Lakeman, Peatbog Faeries, Nuala Kennedy, Lau, Jenna Reid and many more.

Demand for accommodation in Stornoway and surrounding areas in advance of this year’s Hebridean Celtic Festival has hit new levels, with available beds being snapped up early.
Visitor requirements for accommodation during the festival period (11th–14th July) is normally very high and past festivals have seen hotels and bed & breakfast outlets in Stornoway sold out. However, the festival organisers have noted that this trend has shown a rise this year and are making a two-pronged appeal. Caroline MacLennan, Festival Director, said: "Demand is perhaps even exceeding our expectations given that we regularly face this problem at festival time. We would urge any of our festival-goers who have not booked accommodation to give it their urgent attention. We would also ask that if there are any providers of accommodation in the area who have spare capacity, would they please ensure that VisitScotland Outer Hebrides is notified?”
