Live festival to return in 2022

After two Covid-hit years and ‘virtual only’ events, Fèis Ìle – the Islay Festival – is back for 2022.

The festival, held at the end of May, draws whisky and Islay fans from across the globe for a 10-day celebration of Islay, her culture and her spirit. There is music, song, dancing, chatting, meeting friends – old and new – and perhaps a wee dram along the way.

The first batch of event tickets sold out in record time, but there are some still available.

The Islay distilleries will be announcing their events and programmes over the next couple of months, so look out for those.

The Fèis Ìle Facebook page has all the latest updates.
