Fèis Ìle (aka the Islay Festival of Malt and Music) is one of Scotland’s biggest whisky festivals. Each year, starting the last week in May, the festival welcomes whisky, music and travel fans from around the world to come and celebrate with us.

Whilst much of the activity takes place on Islay over a 10-day period, we host our own Jura Fèis Ìle Day where guests are welcomed to the visitor centre for a unique whisky experience (and, if you’re really lucky the chance to sample our exclusive Fèis Ìle Edition), followed by live music.

We're so excited to welcome everyone to Jura for this year's Fèis Ìle on Friday 2nd June, and we have a whole host of fun and exciting plans to make sure everyone gets the most out of their time on our beautiful island. As well as a selection of unique distillery tours, we'll also have several non-ticketed attractions happening in and around the distillery and nearby pub, meaning you're bound to find something to suit every taste. Check out below for further details.

The festival is dog friendly, however you will not be able to bring your dog into the distillery building.

If you'd like to know more about Fèis Ìle, and the schedule of events for 2023, take a look at the official festival website.
