Demijohn’s flagship store at Glenlair Steading will be open for tastings of their unique range of handmade, sustainable food and drink.

And hungry festival goers will be able to enjoy a selection of other local artisan food producers such as Earth’s Crust Bakery from Castle Douglas and Swally and Scran from Kirkcudbright as well as drinks from the Demijohn Cocktail Bar.

Demijohn owner, Angus Ferguson, said: “As we celebrate 21 years of Demijohn this year, our festival theme has to be forever young.

“Our aim is to bring visitors from all over the World to enjoy Galloway and our small festival helps us do that.

“Thanks go to both David Hope-Jones, South of Scotland Destination Alliance CEO, and Simon Hart, D&G Arts Festival director, for their support and continued efforts to help us promote our region.
