This non-competitive festival includes concerts and pub sessions, but the focus is on dancing and dance bands. Performing this year were the bands led by accordionists Marian Anderson, Steven Carcary, Neil Hardie, Iain MacPhail, Tom Orr (picture above left), Craig Paton, George Rennie, Davie Stewart, Liam Stewart, and Gary Sutherland. Other accordionists performing included the Bon Accords, Lynne Christie and Jim Halcrow.

A DVD and CD of the weekend’s music will be released in October. A CD was released for the 2007 festival, cover picture left.
