Rock’ndaal is back! Bruichladdich Distillery’s Fèis Ìle festival day returns at the end of May in person and online. This year we’ll have a loaded programme packed with music, whisky and more to mark Rock’ndaal 2.0. A festival like no other.
Masterclass
Our Head Distiller, Adam Hannett will take you through a selection of drams that he’s chosen exclusively for the Masterclass. Expect plenty of whisky chat, live from Warehouse 12 for an uninterrupted 90 minutes. Open to Masterclass ticket holders and online festival attendees.
Live Music
This year we have it all! A mixture of seasoned headliners with the return of Tidelines and our favourite high-energy blues outfit, The Rhythm and Booze. We also have festival debuts with Scottish talent from trad dance band Heron Valley and Islay’s own Gaelic-singer superstar, Mairi McGillivray. Don't think that's all! Original electro-folk fusion will come from Skye band, Niteworks.
Digital Event
