The Hebridean Celtic Festival in Stornoway is now in it's 11th year.
For the past 10 years more and more people have come to the Isle of Lewis to enjoy one of the most intense music festivals in an amazing setting. One (if not the only) drawback is the part of getting there and back. The main way of transport to the island for most festival visitors is the Calmac Ferry.
Unfortunatly there is no ferry running on Sundays, and with many people having to work on Monday again, people tend to leave with the last ferry on Saturday. This also being the last day of the festival, means the gigs on saturday evening are not as well booked as they should be!
In order to enable more people to enjoy the fantastic shows on Saturday evening, we are hoping to get Calmac to organise at least one run of their ferry to Ullapool for Sunday.
We, the undersigned, would like Caledonian MacBrayne to run a Sunday ferry on the 16th of July 2006 as an exception to cater for the Hebridean Celtic Festival.
