The Great Scottish Firefest
With a love of wood seems to come a love of fire. Join us at our brand new FireFest to celebrate charcoal making, blacksmithing, pottery, and more hot and smokey stuff!
About The Great Scottish Firefest
If you've ever met anyone at Green Aspirations, you'll already know that we love a good fire and don't do anything without some roaring logs in the hearth.
So, it will be no surprise that we're very excited for this final event of our 2023 Hoolie programme!
We're bringing together craftspeople from across the UK who use fire as part of their process - from blacksmiths to potters, and from glass workers to smelters.
It's going to a hot and smoky affair!
Your ticket includes entry to this small-but-perfectly-formed weekend event, access to workshops with our expert trainers, food for the whole weekend, and camping.
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
