We have tickets on sale as early as we possibly can as we know there are lots of international enthusiasts who are wanting to come to Perthshire for this special weekend. The 2025 website is now online ... the whole concept of MacLeans Art and Music is more than an annual event and the website reflects that. It continues to be a real 'labour of love' and we hope you all find it interesting.
Make sure you read the Shades of Amber 2025 page https://www.perthshireamber.com/shades-of-amber-2025 before you go to the Programme and Info https://www.perthshireamber.com/programmeandinfo2025.

There will be 4 concerts (Dougie MacLean with Very Special Guests), an Open Mic and lots of music sessions (including a wonderful Firepit Session), as well as a small exhibition of Jenny's available watercolours and weavings...and of course the Big Knit charity fundraiser! AS IN 2022 & 2023, ALL ACTIVITIES DURING THE WEEKEND WILL BE HAPPENING AT THE ATMOSPHERIC CARDNEY STEADING...WITH STUNNING SCENERY ALL AROUND! The new venue, in the first 5 photos below, ('The Dalradian') is a brilliant addition for the main concerts and will allow more room for music sessions in the 'Old Barn' and 'The Cattle Shed'.

There will be shuttle buses available to and from each concert from Dunkeld ... though if you have your own transport you can book accommodation from Birnam to Blairgowrie and anywhere between! 
There will be lots of car parking available at Cardney Steading and parking for a maximum of 5 'self sufficient' campervans as well.
There will be food trucks and a bar available at Cardney Steading throughout the weekend..
