More than 40 exciting *free events have been announced for a new spectacular cultural celebration that will transform Stirling and its surrounding areas on Friday 1 May.
The full programme has been confirmed for Culture Night Stirling, ‘Carnival of the Wolf’, a unique festival that will bring venues and unexpected spaces to life through a wide variety of events and activities for one night only.
The inaugural theme for the festival, ‘Carnival of the Wolf’, takes inspiration from one of Stirling’s most enduring legends – the tale of a pack of wolves whose howls alerted the people of Stirling to an attempted Viking invasion.
This legend will be reimagined across the city and the wider area through performance, music, art, and spectacle packed into one exhilarating night.
There will be something for everyone to enjoy as Stirling’s spirit, creativity and thriving culture scene is celebrated. Expect: live music, aerial dance and immersive performance; cabaret and standup comedy; bold theatrical drumming performances; a historical crime tour that brings Stirling’s darker stories to life; pop-up performances, workshops, installations, food and drink experiences, and much more as the May Bank Holiday weekend gets underway with a bang.
Among the Culture Night Stirling headliners is a homecoming performance by internationally acclaimed DJ and producer Sam Gellaitry. His special one-off DJ set will see him return to perform in his hometown after touring internationally and working with the likes of PinkPantheress and Kaytranada.
