We are thrilled to have sponsored the renowned Orkney Folk Festival this year.
As a firm with deep roots in Orkney, supporting local culture and the arts is one of our passions.
We also recognise the significant role the festival plays in celebrating and preserving the rich folk traditions of Orkney.
That’s why we were so keen to be a part of this year’s festival, which has grown into one of Scotland's most beloved cultural events.
Every year, it brings together talented musicians and creates a vibrant atmosphere on the islands that showcases both traditional and contemporary folk music.
Our sponsorship is driven by a shared commitment to fostering community spirit and cultural heritage.
This year’s event was a huge success!
More than 8,300 tickets were sold – beating the previous record set in 2023 – and almost 600 people signed up online to watch the proceedings digitally.
Festivals like Orkney Folk Festival offer an invaluable opportunity for Orcadians, Scots and those from further afield to connect, celebrate, and immerse themselves in the unique cultural landscape of the islands.
As sponsors, the Scholes CA team had a great time engaging with festival-goers and sharing in the joy that this event brings to our community.
If you missed this year’s festivities, we hope to see you at the next one!
