The two Kings for Samhuinn 2014 are Ian Stuart (above left) and James “Spike” Nisbet (above right).

They started their individual journeys towards the end of 2013, combined in early 2014, and we are particularly drawn to the level of detail they have included in their plans. We look forward to sharing what is shaping up to be a full and intense journey for both of them.

“We are over the moon”, said Ian. “We are really looking forward to this festival: and with over 100 performers in a relatively small number of groups, we hope we can combine to fashion a celebration that will enthrall the audience whilst also capturing the heart of the rituals within.”
