A record number of early bird tickets for the next year’s HebCelt go on sale tomorrow. (Friday).
Following on from the success of last year’s event, which saw early bird tickets for the 2023 festival sell out in a record-breaking four and a half hours, festival organisers have set aside their biggest ever batch of early bird tickets to match demand.
HebCelt festival director, Graham MacCallum, said: "We were absolutely blown away by the response to early bird tickets last year – the support from locals and those further afield who make the journey to HebCelt each year is just phenomenal.
“This year we’re releasing more early bird tickets than ever to try to meet demand and ensure more people can secure their tickets at this stage. We would still encourage people to move quickly if they’re keen to get early bird tickets for 2024 as we expect they will go fast again this year.”
This event saw record attendances of 19,500 on Lews Castle Green this July, an increase of more than 8% compared to 2022 while overall attendances across the programme as a whole across the town rose by 6%.
HebCelt 2024 will take place between 17 to 20 July. A limited number of early bird tickets go on sale on the festival’s website at noon on Friday.
