This page is a work-in-progress which will eventually be a comprehensive set of information specific to the 2026 Dumfries Street Choirs Festival. We’ll continue to populate with content based on previous festivals. Please be patient with us as we work to get all the information together.

We’ll be updating this page with information as and when it becomes available. It was last updated on:

Access and Inclusion

Dumfries SCF2026 are committed to providing an accessible and inclusive event, to ensure that all our choir participants feel welcome and can fully take part. We have endeavoured to take feedback on board from previous events and consulted with those who have lived experience to identify potential barriers and put systems in place to mitigate where possible.

Health & Safety

We want you to enjoy your time here and in a safe way. As such whilst staying in your accommodation, using the festival indoor and outdoor venues/spaces and travelling between places and crossing roads we ask that you please take care of yourself, your health, wellbeing and safety, your personal belongings and any banners you have brought as well as looking out for others.

If there’s a health and safety issue you come across that you are unable to address yourself then please contact ASAP a festival volunteer steward (wearing yellow) who will do their best to help including access to First Aid.

We have done our best to support you against any potential health and safety risks/hazards. This is captured in our Risk Assessment which we strongly advise all choir members to look at prior to and during the weekend. Please read our Health & Safety statement here.
