A quick reminder to our supporters to pre-book tickets for this weekend's Scottish Festival of Real Bread.

Tickets are selling fast for the Festival this weekend, and we highly recommend pre-booking to avoid missing out on events. Some workshops are already sold out.

We do hope to see you on Saturday: it promises to be a fantastic day, with lots of inspiring, fun, creative and celebratory activity to round off Real Bread Week 2024.

A reminder of the line-up

Tickets will be available on the day, but we expect the following events to sell out (or book up - prices range from free to £10 + booking fee). To avoid disappointment, we recommend pre-booking for:

• Arise!, The Breadagogues’ work-in-progress show of Songs and Stories for the Bread Revolution

• The first screening in Scotland of 'Six Inches of Soil' feature documentary film – the inspiring story of British farmers standing up against the industrial food system to heal the soil, benefit our health and provide for local communities – followed by a discussion on how healthy grains from healthy soils are the foundation of Real Bread. Watch the trailer here.
