We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who helped make the 25th year of Refugee Festival Scotland our biggest and best one yet.

It’s been an incredible ten days. Between 13 and 22 June, more than 160 events took place across the country – from the Borders to the Highlands and everywhere in between.

We admired fabulous art, watched award winning films, saw spectacular music, dance and theatre performances, played sports together and enjoyed delicious food from around the world.

Thanks so much for taking part in our annual celebration of art, culture and community. We hope you enjoyed Refugee Festival Scotland 2025 as much as we did. See you next year.
