Since its inception in 2011, the festival has grown into a beloved gathering for fans from across the UK and beyond, coming together to celebrate Rory's music in the spirit he would have appreciated, live, loud, and heartfelt.

The UK festival aims to offer fans a closer-to-home chance to enjoy the music, stories, and atmosphere that Rory inspired.

From tribute acts that honour his unmatched guitar style to intimate acoustic sets and memorabilia displays, the festival is a tribute in the truest sense. For tickets click HERE.
