Festival Information
Scotland
Overview
Eden Festival is an independent four-day festival of music, arts and culture held in the wooded parkland of Raehills Estate near Moffat. Live bands and DJs span folk, soul, electronic music, jazz, rockabilly, world music and other genres.
The festival is organised and built with substantial involvement from the local community. Much of its stage and venue infrastructure is retained on site for reuse, alongside measures including reusable cups, water refill points and environmental standards for traders.
Away from the stages, the programme includes cabaret, comedy, creative workshops, wellbeing activities and a central family area. Camping is included with festival admission, with separate options for live-in vehicles and glamping.
