Welcome to Clackmannanshire.
At the heart of our festival is community, family, local history and wellbeing.
Join us for the familiar and the unexpected. We will tell some spooky stories, share local legends, introduce the ‘Wee Folk’ in our folklore and enrich the stories with crafty activities.
Featuring guest storyteller Jess Smith and local storytellers Joanne Dowd, Eleanor Bell and many more. Hosted by Hillfoots Tales.
Join us for an evening of historical stories.
This event is part of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival.
Three local storytellers and guest storyteller Jess Smith will entertain you with tales you may never have heard before.
Due to the historic property, this event is only accessible via a sweeping staircase.
Discover a rich programme of local storytelling events, from the southwest to the very north of Scotland through Go Local as part of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival 2025. The Festival tracks a rich northern arc which bridges Finland to Iceland, and connects Germany to Norway, with Scotland a sea road junction in the middle. Don’t miss out on the tales and music or the close experience of nature. As winter gathers round the hearth fires, look north to join the merry dancers in the sky!
