[HEADLINER ANNOUNCEMENT] – Skipinnish
by: Simon Clark
We’re delighted to announce that Skipinnish will be headlining the Saturday night of Heartland Festival 2026.
One of Scotland’s most iconic Celtic music acts, Skipinnish are known for their powerful blend of traditional Highland roots, unforgettable anthems, and electric live shows. Their rise has been nothing short of phenomenal — from Tiree to the OVO Hydro, Edinburgh Castle, and now… Pitlochry.
Fresh from celebrating their 25th anniversary with a series of huge shows in 2024, including a stunning homecoming in Inverness and a sell-out performance at Edinburgh Castle, the band continues to pack out venues and festival stages up and down the country.
This is one we’ve been working on for some time, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome them to Heartland.
Sales & Marketing Director Simon Clark said: “In our recent post-festival survey, we asked our followers to name the one band they really wanted to see at Heartland. Skipinnish were one of the most requested, and we’re confident this will be a very popular addition to our 2026 line-up.”
Skipinnish will take to the main stage on Saturday 27th June 2026, joining an already incredible weekend of live Scottish music — including Peat & Diesel, Starsailor, The Skids, Sandi Thom, Ben Walker, Torridon, The Laurettes, and more.
