Welcome to the Solas Festival Website!
The Solas Festival is a unique, independent festival with all the charisma and appeal that the larger festivals have. If you want to get away from the overrun commercialised festivals taking place this summer, Solas is the place for you. With 7 stages hosting a diverse range of infamous acts appealing to everyone’s tastes, Solas is not one to be missed this summer!!!
Being a small, intimate festival, we at Solas want you to feel as comfortable and contented as possible. Camping is completely free! Although the event only starts on the Saturday, we will be opening the camp site on the Friday night to let you all get settled in!
Fed up stinking for days at a festival, covered in mud and sweat? We will provide showers to help you keep as fresh as you did when you first arrived!
Unlike other festivals, we won’t just have one type of beer for you to drink for the whole weekend. Collaborating with the local pubs, there will be an off-licence, themed bar and regular bar... You will also be able to bring your own drinks!!!
