Events

Orkney’s official tourism website

Orkney plays host too many festivals and events throughout the year. There are many opportunities to enjoy jazz, country, traditional and classical music, appreciate the arts, and to participate in community events. With the Orkney Folk Festival celebrating its 25th Anniversary in May and the reopening of The Pier Arts Centre, 2007 is sure to be an eventful year.

With so many events taking place throughout the year, it’s a good idea to drop into one of our information centres for details of additional events. Similarly if you’re coming to Orkney specifically for an event it’s worth confirming dates in advance;
t. (01856) 872856; f. (01856) 875056; e. info@visitorkney.com. It is also essential to book accommodation and travel arrangements during the larger festivals.
