About the Tweed Valley Forest Festival

In 2010 the Tweed Valley Forest Festival attracted over 3,750 people from far and near to celebrate the connections with the area's Halloween customs and growing forest culture.

And this year it is all set to run again with a fantastic line up of indoor and outdoor events from Saturday 22nd to Sunday 30th October 2011.

Developed by the Treefest Partnership the festival is based around the Tweed Valley Forest Park with the beautiful market town of Peebles at its hub. Just 20 odd miles south of Edinburgh this popular destination offers a High Street with fantastic independent shops, hotels & restaurants serving delicious food and a countryside which is stunning to view and explore - especially in the golden glow of autumn.

Inspired? There's plenty of fascinating forest fun to be had as Iain Laidlaw of the Treefest Partnership explains:
"The Tweed Valley Forest Festival is shaping up to be a fantastic event packed with heaps of entertainment and activities for everyone.  Our dynamic team of Treefest partners have pulled together to lay on a fascinating blend of indoor and outdoor events. Thanks to all the organisers, the festival should be brilliant so I'd urge everyone to join in the fun and get a real taste of the history and culture in this stunning part of the Tweed Valley."
