The festival is set to take place later this month
AN international line up of speakers has been announced for a new festival celebrating Scotland’s ancient Nordic connections and close ties with Canada.
Highlights include Circo Rum Ba Ba’s The Tale Of Whale which will see a 50ft sperm whale wash up in the heart of Wick. Families will be welcomed inside the belly of the beast to hear seafaring stories of pirates battling plastic and explore mermaid museums. In a series of online events, there will be readings from acclaimed Norwegian and Canadian writers and poets.
The festival, which is supported by Event Scotland as part of Scotland’s Year of Stories, will close with a special online reading from former Edinburgh Makar Christine De Luca.
