One of the most isolated outdoor gatherings in the UK, The Wickerman Festival aims to recapture the spirit of adventure inherent from days when the northern tribes would treck miles for social get-togethers with their peers.

Its mission is simple - make sure everyone has a great time. The festival goers themselves, whether into northern soul, new metal, or ska bring with them a bewildering mix of hair dos, get-ups and customs much like early settlements who evolved in isolation to the rest of the world.
