We pack as much music, performance, art and entertainment as we can into this unique environment, with surreal and magical results. It's a cultural safari for the mind, body and soul.

– Kelburn Garden Party currently plans to go ahead.
Hi everyone. Hope you are keeping as well as possible.
As you will be aware, the concerns surrounding Coronavirus (Covid-19) have impacted the plans for events across the UK and worldwide.
At Kelburn Arts, we are very aware that there is a great deal of confusion over whether events like the Kelburn Garden Party will be able to go ahead or if restrictions are extended therefore forcing a cancellation.
Current government rules mean no large gatherings are allowed. But as Kelburn happens later in the year we will continue in the hope that we can go ahead when this is re-evaluated. Larger events such as Glastonbury, which happen around the same time have had to cancel, but these events have a much longer build time than us so our plan remains in place that the Festival will go ahead as normal in July.
If restrictions are extended closer to July and we are then forced to cancel, we will ask ticketholders to transfer their ticket to the following year. In this scenario we will be asking everyone to hold on to their tickets as this will mitigate the substantial financial impact of cancellation and help Kelburn to survive this period.
For those that insist on a refund, our policy is based on our standard terms and conditions as found on our website at www.kelburngardenparty.com/tickets/tandc.
We have always thought of our audience as family and we hope that you are all safe and healthy. Our thoughts are with those who have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
We are committed to being as transparent and responsive as possible and will keep you informed of any changes as they happen.
Stay safe and much love. And please keep your fingers crossed for us🤞
The Kelburn Arts Team ❤️
A throwback to happier times, when we were all together dancing in the sun at The Pyramid Stage.
We're still planning to be there at The Kelburn Garden Party 2020 this summer. In the meantime, know that we miss you all and are looking forward to our reunion whenever it comes.
Our pals at Paradise Palms in Edinburgh are doing something incredible for the local homeless population. Please support them!HELP US HELP STREETWORK
Here at Palms & Lucky Pig we've been completely overwhelmed by everyone’s generosity and would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who bought our COVID-19 staff fund vouchers. THANK YOU!
It's been so successful that we’d like to extend the scheme to help Edinburgh’s homeless so we’re now offering the same voucher scheme with 100% of the money raised going to food care packages for Edinburgh’s homeless.
The food is distributed through the incredible people at Streetwork who are working round the clock to keep these often forgotten vulnerable members of society off our streets and into temporary hotels so they can also stay at ‘home’.
Our vouchers can be redeemed for food/drinks/perks & goodwill once we are back up and trading again (whenever that is!) but we’ll use the cash now when it's needed to help feed homeless folk and keep them off the streets during this crucial period!
Available in multiples of £10 through our bandcamp where you can find more info about all this too. If you’re unable to donate don’t worry, perhaps you could do us a solid and share this post 😊
Stay safe, stay home, stay sanitised, stay positive.
Love from all the Palmily xxx
