Transport

Dunnet Bay is just fifteen minutes away from Thurso and and thirty from Wick - both of which are well served by public transport links. Reaching the event from these towns can be easily done by referring to the below directory:

Car
The festival grounds (Ham Park) lies just beside the A836 and parking will be available North of the village.

Taxi
There are a multitude of local taxi firms that can cater to your needs, it is advised you book these in advance. You can view a list of local taxi numbers on one of our recent Facebook posts by clicking here.

Bus
Stagecoach Highland offers a semi-regular bus service to Dunnet however it is North Coast Entertainment’s intention to operate a bus service from both Thurso and Wick. This is to ensure local bus services do not become overwhelmed and patrons arrive on time.

Buses will leave/return from both Wick (opposite Norseman Hotel) and Thurso (opposite Riverside Replicas) on Friday 4^th and Saturday 5th September 2026. Exact times will be updated closer to the date.
