Festival People
Festival People is a series of short interviews which take a look at those who work behind the scenes, helping to ensure the event delivers ever-increasing enjoyment, those whose commitment through volunteer effort is outstanding and those with whom the Festival reaches out to and embraces.
Through this section of the website we hope you will get a better insight into the part that the Hebridean Celtic Festival plays within the community it serves and what those whom it touches take from the experience.

KATHRYN MORRISON
The 'Next In Line' is a bit of a theme for Kathryn Morrison. It's the name of a band in the Western Isles which she likes to go and listen to; it's also a phrase which reflects a little of the job she does for the festival....

CAROLINE MACLENNAN
Caroline MacLennan is one of the founding members of the Festival team. She says: "The least favourite things I have to do are funding applications and reporting. They're essential but they're still a drag to do." And we're very glad she does!..
