The 33rd Scottish Annual Traditional Boat Festival is being held again this year in the historic 17th Century Harbour town of Portsoy on the Aberdeenshire coast
on 13-14th June 2026
For 20 years the Coracle Society has supported the Festival by running coracle events over the weekend in the Old Harbour.
This event is held annually usually on the second Saturday in August on the river (12pm-3pm) besides Bures Recreation Ground. This event has a fancy name but is in fact a FREE, low-key, laid back, fun afternoon.
We have been made aware of two events later this year that are looking for traditional craft demonstrators
We all thought the coracle (curach) had died out as a traditional working boat in Scotland in the 18th Century with the cessation of timber floating on the River Spey.
Anyone who has been for a paddle on many of the country’s rivers in the past few years will have noticed much litter floating around, or caught in overhanging branches.
