The River Town of Dumbarton, where the Cutty Sark was built, connects Loch Lomond with the Clyde by the river Leven. In early June 2020 an exciting new festival of music, arts and recreational events will run over four days to celebrate how water shaped this historic town, from distilling to shipbuilding.
With the waterfront as a backdrop, artists and national companies will join local schools and community groups to reinvigorate the town’s maritime history. The themes of Build, Float, and Connect will run through the festival’s programme of activities for all ages, underlining Dumbarton’s location as a River Town.
