We are sad to announce that this year’s Refugee Festival Scotland will not go ahead due to the Covid-19 crisis.

The festival is built around shared face-to-face experiences and community and communal events – all things that are currently restricted to prevent the spread of the virus.

We know a lot of people will miss those two weeks in June where we open our doors to each other in a spirit of friendship, shared culture and community. But right now we are all working to support each other in different and urgent ways.

Along with our many wonderful partners we have run Refugee Festival Scotland in various shapes and forms for twenty years now. There’s no doubt the festival will come back to life once this difficult time is behind us.

In the meantime, please follow us on Twitter and Facebook to keep up to date with our plans.

Stay safe and keep well friends.
