KELBURNERS 💚🤩✨ Let's not leave it that lo KELBURNERS 💚🤩✨  Let's not leave it that long again, yeah?  You really outdid yourselves this weekend! What is there left to say, except an enormous thank you for making our first festival back so wonderful 🔥  It's been a long and bumpy road these past couple of years, so we want to send all our love to everyone who stuck with us, and to all the artists and crew who worked so hard to bring Kelburn Garden Party 2022 to life.  Post-festival photos are on their way! In the meantime, here are a few more highlights...  #KelburnParties #KelburnGardenParty #KelburnCastle #Festival #MusicFestival #FestivalVibes #FestivalSeason #FestivalLife #Music #IGMusic #LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents #ScottishFestival
Ooft! Day 2 at Kelburn Garden Party was something Ooft! Day 2 at Kelburn Garden Party was something else 💚  Between the rave marathon at The Landing Stage courtesy of @24hrgaragegirls @dj_aphrodite @thefreestylersofficial and more, a rambunctious ska set from @bombskare on The Square Stage and a very special live band backing @mcdizraeli's conscious lyrics, yesterday was a real gift for the eyes and and ears.  If you found yourself welling up seeing the festival in full swing, you weren't the only one...
Kelburn Garden Party is officially in full swing! Kelburn Garden Party is officially in full swing!  What a belter of a first day we had! Never mind the July showers - the spirits were high and the vibes just right 👌  We loved seeing you all gie it laldy on the dance floor, whether you were soaking up the cosmic rhythms of @henge_cosmicdross, throwing wicked shapes to @ida_savy at The Landing Stage, catching homegrown hip hop such as @bigbemz1 (programmed by @theskinnymag on The Pyramid Stage), or immersing yourself in some more of the incredible acts in our expansive programme 🔥  Who's ready for Round 2?  #KelburnParties #KelburnGardenParty #KelburnCastle #Festival #MusicFestival #FestivalVibes #FestivalSeason #FestivalLife #Music #IGMusic #LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents #ScottishFestival
🚗 CAR PARKING UPDATE 🚙 That is us now all o 🚗 CAR PARKING UPDATE 🚙  That is us now all out of car parking spaces. We will not have any spare for resale over the festival, and, as the festival has started, Fanticks is not selling any more second hand tickets.  If you are yet to travel to Kelburn Garden Party this weekend, you can catch the train from Glasgow to Largs, which is a five minute bus or taxi ride away from the festival. Check the travel guidance on our website for more help getting to the festival (link in bio)  Also a huge shoutout and thanks to our traffic team! The festival kicked off in full force yesterday, which meant shifting a lot of cars onto and out of the site. Big love to our volunteers for all their hard work managing the traffic flow 💚
🚌 ALL RETURN BUSES TO GLASGOW AND EDINBURGH SOL 🚌 ALL RETURN BUSES TO GLASGOW AND EDINBURGH SOLD OUT 🚍  That's us all out of Monday buses home, folks!

Good afternoon Kelburn campers 👊 We were off Good afternoon Kelburn campers 👊  We were off to a flyer last night in Smugglers, big up all the earlybirds!  We've got a few programme updates here...  With Covid it seems we're not out of the woods yet, and a number of acts have cancelled due to illness we're afraid to say: Kampire, Ru Robsinson and Beatles Dub Club both won't be appearing after catching the bug at Glasto 😵‍  Stanley Odd will now be doing a DJ/MC set as their guitarist is down 😫  And a final insult has come from HM Home Office who have declined to issue visas for Fulu Miziki despite all boxes being ticked in good time.  We're obviously gutted about all of this, but all events are outwith our control.  Other than that, The Neverending Glen is open now and we're almost ready to rock tonight - See you soon ❤️❤️❤️
Good morning Kelburn campers! This is it, the firs Good morning Kelburn campers! This is it, the first day of Kelburn Garden Party 2022 is finally here ✨🎉💥  We are so excited to finally welcome you back to our beautiful festival home. It really has been far too long.  Get yourselves in the mood this morning by tuning in to our Kelburn Garden Party Spotify playlist (link in bio)  Or go back through the catalogues on our Kelburn Mixtape series on Mixcloud.  Box office opens at 1pm today and closes at 10pm - make sure you arrive between those times!  And if you have any questions before you arrive at the site, please don't hesitate to drop us a DM 💚  #KelburnParties #KelburnGardenParty #KelburnCastle #Festival #MusicFestival #FestivalVibes #FestivalSeason #FestivalLife #Music #IGMusic #LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents #ScottishFestival
Are we all nearly ready? 🥳💚🎉 The festiva Are we all nearly ready? 🥳💚🎉  The festival has already started filling up with our Thursday bolt-on campers! For the rest of you arriving tomorrow, we've got a few quick pointers to rattle through...  🕛 Box office opens at 1pm tomorrow and closes at 10pm. Make sure you arrive at the site between those times!  ‼️ Our lovely box office team will do their utmost to make your entrance to the festival as easy as possible, but we do expect queues. Please be aware that there may be a bit of a wait for your wristband.  💚 Do not panic if you have not managed to change the name on your ticket - we are aware that some people have had trouble getting that done in time.  If you have bought your ticket off Fanticks, then your ticket transfer confirmation email, your ticket and some photo ID will be enough.  🚗 Car parking is sold out! Please do not park in the neighbouring streets or in Fairlie, as it disrupts our neighbours and could hurt our festival's future.  🚌 If you do not have a ticket for your car, please either look for a second hand car parking ticket on Fanticks, get yourself booked onto our Kelburn bus, or get public transport to Largs and fetch our shuttle bus from there. Follow the link in our bio for travel info.  🌤 Scottish summer is afoot! Make sure to pack for all weathers - Kelburn Garden Party is a weather system unto itself.  👩‍🎤 We don't have a specific costume theme, but we want to see you all in your best and most electrifying party swag! It is the reunion party of the year after all...  That's all for now. Sleep tight Kelburn campers, and we'll see you all back home tomorrow 💚  #KelburnParties #KelburnGardenParty #KelburnCastle #Festival #MusicFestival #FestivalVibes #FestivalSeason #FestivalLife #Music #IGMusic #LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents #ScottishFestival
🚗 CAR PARKING UPDATE 🚙 In a matter of hours 🚗 CAR PARKING UPDATE 🚙  In a matter of hours we’ll be opening up our festival site to our Thursday bolt-on holders! Excited doesn’t even begin to cover it.  We’re at the apex of the “sorting things out” time now, so let’s talk parking.  This year we’ve been able to offer more car parking spaces than ever before! However, we know that some of you have been disappointed and missed out on a parking ticket. There’s also that “beautiful” Scottish summer to contend with…  We are working hard to find a solution for everyone, but we need to ensure that all customers who have already bought a parking ticket are safely parked first.  We will reassess numbers in the car park on Friday night, when we’re in the full flow of arrivals and can most accurately look for spare parking spaces. We will advertise any extra availability across our social media then.  There is very limited parking in Largs, where we offer a convenient shuttle bus to/from the festival site. You can read more info about the shuttle bus on our website (link in bio)  Please DO NOT park in the streets close to the festival, including in Fairlie. This is disruptive to our neighbours, and could potentially jeopardise the future of the festival.  If you are able to, we ask that you instead book a seat on our Kelburn bus, which runs from Edinburgh and Glasgow to the festival, or use public transport to reach Largs. Follow the link in our bio for more travel info.  Whichever way you travel this weekend, please be respectful to the local community. And if you have any questions, drop us a DM and we’ll get an answer for you ASAP.  #KelburnParties #KelburnGardenParty #KelburnCastle #Festival #MusicFestival #FestivalVibes #FestivalSeason #FestivalLife #Music #IGMusic #LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents #ScottishFestival
