Join us at Nc'nean distillery for the first day of the West Highland Whisky Festival 2026
About this Event

A day of whisky, food, music and more here at Nc'nean Distillery, as we host the opening day of the new West Highland Whisky Festival.

Tickets to our day are free and will include a distillery tour, a whisky and tasting glass, with more drams and food available to buy.

Nc'nean founder Annabel Thomas will also be hosting ticketed warehouse tastings, including three cask samples, to give an insight into how our flagship whisky is created.

We'll be serving drinks in our bar and have bottled an exclusive festival single cask for the occasion.

A shuttle bus will bring guests to and from the neighbouring village of Lochaline, and there will be a limited number of car parking spaces available. Walkers are most welcome, but we're quite far from anywhere, so pack your hiking boots!

Although the festival is free, tickets and parking spaces are limited and must be reserved. Return tickets for the bus are £10 and must be booked in advance. The warehouse tasting with Annabel is priced at £45.

Buses:

The buses will depart Lochaline, then depart the distillery for the return journey at the following times:

9.30am - 1.15pm

10.45am - 2.45pm

12pm - 4pm

2pm - 5.30pm

So, if you arrive on the 9.30am bus, you must take the 1.15pm bus back to Lochaline, or else you will miss your spot!
