Dunoon TradFest

Dunoon's TradFest is back, and the whole town joins in. From Thursday 24 to Sunday 27 September there's traditional and contemporary music all over Dunoon, from small acoustic sessions in cafés and coffee shops to full ceilidh bands in the pubs and restaurants. The big night is Saturday, when Peat & Diesel headline the Grand Festival Concert at the Queen's Hall with Calum MacPhail and guests. That concert has sold out, though there's a waiting list for any tickets that come back. Many of the weekend's sessions are free, so it's easy to wander from one to the next and follow the music round the town.
