2ND – 3RD July 2027
Scotland’s most vibrant grassroots music celebration
Experience the raw energy of independent music in the heart of Ayrshire. A weekend of unforgettable sounds and community spirit.
Origins
Born from passion in Dalrymple, Ayr
Doonfest started as a simple idea—bring real music back to Scotland’s grassroots. What began in a small corner of Ayrshire has grown into something that matters, a festival where artists and audiences meet on equal ground.

Music

Discover artists who push boundaries and challenge convention. Our stages showcase the voices that matter, the ones making waves in independent music across Scotland and beyond.
