Stage Focus #2: The Landing. Old school Kelburn-ites may recall the very first festival in 2008 that largely took place on the old tennis court under the gaze of the castle, with @si_bonobo headlining. After that it took us a few years to return to this spot, with a UFO in 2015 - when The Landing... landed! In 2018 we decided to go large in this amazing space, and upped the scale to create a proper and fitting home for electronic music at Kelburn, with @mrgoldie closing the first night of the new stage and kicking off a new era. Since then we've seen some great performances from a varied range of top artists, including @leftfieldmusic @acid_arab @chaosinthecbd_ @ltj_bukem @maxcoopermax and of course @optimoespacio's triumphant closing set on the Sunday this year. More ground-breaking, bass-shaking artists to come in 2023! 💥

Each stage at Kelburn started off as an idea cooked up late at night, an impromptu performance, or in response to some crises or other. They have all grown over the years to have their own character and vibe. So we're gonna big them up one by one starting with the original Kelburn party spot - The Viewpoint! Simply too many highlights to begin to count. See you there in 2023? 😍
We had a wild time catching Scottish folk duo Mad Ferret in the Smuggler's Tent this year. You've never seen mandolin plucking so fast 💥![]()
