We are excited to share the dates of our upcoming VILLAGE STORYTELLING FESTIVAL 2026, Glasgow’s Contemporary and Community Storytelling Festival.

In keeping with our theme of Voices of Change we have some changes of our own…

This time we will kick things off on our home turf (quite literally) in Pollok with our famous KITE FEST on SUNDAY MAY 24th. And our city centre based festival has a new home!
This year we will be hosting a brilliant programme of performance, exhibitions and screenings, as well as a full day symposium at THE BOARDWALK,
from WEDNESDAY 3rd to SATURDAY 6th JUNE. And we will finish in true Scottish style with an epic Ceilidh at the Recital Rooms, City Halls on the Saturday night.
Pop those dates in your diary and keep your eyes peeled for the release of our programme on April 22nd.
