Popular festival delayed due to Coronavirus
It's with huge regret that we announce the postponement of Springfest Food and Drink Festival scheduled to take place on the 4th and 5th April at Loch Lomond Shores.

Following last week’s announcement by the Scottish Government recommending all gatherings of over 500 people are cancelled, we’re putting the safety of our vendors and visitors first and rescheduling for July in the hope that the current crisis will have abated. The new date will be announced in the coming weeks.
Anyone who has booked tickets for our Loch Lomond Whiskies Whisky Tasting Sessions during the Springfest weekend will of course be issued with a full refund and sent an email notification of this. They will also be notified of the new dates as soon as they are confirmed.
Commenting on the postponement, Audrey Calder from Loch Lomond Shores says: “It’s a real pity to have to postpone Springfest given the success of our two major food and drink festivals last year but we’re determined that they will both be back this year, just later than scheduled, and will give everyone a much needed great day out!
“In the meantime, Loch Lomond Shores is very much open for business while we follow all recommended Government guidelines and closely watch the developing situation to ensure our visitors enjoy a safe visit to Loch Lomond Shores.
“In addition, our outdoor space – beach, woodland and large loch-side pedestrian areas – all offer a great opportunity to get fresh air with your family during this difficult time.”
