What is the Big Tent? I like the look of Falkland.....years ago I thought that war was in Scotland as I must have seen a programme about it!!

The Big Tent is the formerly annual Eco-Festival in Falkland, in Fife, Scotland  ;)
We watched it grow from a tiny event, mainly for kids to a large 3 day festival with fab bands and superb food, talks, workshops and stalls on all things eco.  :&>

Doesn't seem to be on their website yet - but it's usually in July and there's an email link on the page.

no, there had been a gap of 2 years between this year's and the previous Big Tent. It may have grown too fast for its own good.  :&>
