Refugee Festival Scotland 2026

Refugee Festival Scotland 2026’s 10-day celebration of art, culture and community is back from Friday 12 to Sunday 21 June!
The full programme is live now, with 150+ events happening in locations across Scotland.
Refugee Festival Scotland is a nation-wide arts and cultural festival that provides people from refugee backgrounds with a dedicated platform to showcase their creativity, heritage and contributions to life in Scotland and is an opportunity to bring communities together. Scottish Refugee Council convenes and co-ordinates the Festival. It is a privilege to bring communities across Scotland together to share, learn and connect.
We publish events and consultations in our calendar which we hope will be of interest to our members and supporters. We strive to be accurate in these listings, so please contact us if you see an error or problem. The organisers of third-party events (coded blue) are mostly unconnected to us, and we have no control over these.
If you know of an event that you would like to see listed here, please let us know.
