Celebrating 18th annual festival in 2013, HebCelt is renowned for its truly special party atmosphere which radiates from its epicentre in the Castle Grounds to our outermost communities capturing the hearts and minds of all it touches.
This year for the third year in succession the festival was selected as one of the top ten UK summer festivals by music magazine Songlines. It emerged victorious as Best Large Festival at the industry-sponsored Scottish Event Awards 2011.
It is regarded by critics, performers and festival-goers as one of the top Celtic music festivals in Europe and has twice won the Best Event of the Year award at the MG Alba Scots Trad Music Awards, which is voted for by the public. This year already the festival was featured by CNN as one of the key events in Scotland, their no 1 travel destination for 2013; measure of the value of the event to the creative community.
