THE WEST Coast is bursting with exciting culture. From music to dance, from literature to food and drink, a thriving festival season showcases the ‘best of the west.’ And if 2016 is anything to go by, 2017 looks to be the best year ever for the festival scene.
Billed as ‘the best free festival in the world’, the Mull Music Festival April 20-24 sees four days and nights chock full of music in the pubs and hotels of Tobermory. Dubbed a ‘literary lock-in’, the Colonsay Book Festival, April 29-30 welcomes renowned authors, poets and book lovers for workshops and readings, while the Colonsay Spring Festival looks forward to its fifth year with over 60 events celebrating all things Spring, May 1-21.
