We won an AWARD!

Published on 2 May 2025

We, the team and board are absolutely delighted to have won the ‘Best Large Festival’ at this year’s Scottish Event Awards at a glittering ceremony held at the O2 Academy Edinburgh.

They say it takes a village… and in our case, it takes a whole town and a fantastic team. This award is not just for us – it’s for all of the people who take part, support, show up and help make the Findhorn Bay Festival happen. So, a BIG and heartfelt thank you to you from us.
