What a weekend! Thank you Dunbar.
Dunbar Music Festival 2026 was a brilliant celebration of live music, community and the town itself.
A huge thank you to everyone who came along, performed, volunteered, hosted events, supported our venues and helped create such a special atmosphere across the weekend.
