Black Agnes Festival @ Dunbar Battery

The Black Agnes Award Ceremony

Come mark the anniversary of the siege of Dunbar and celebrate all things Agnes with songs, jokes and local artists.

Our headline act this year is brilliant Dunbar gal gang Room 27 “Yo! we’re Room 27, a 5-piece all female rock band based in Dunbar, East Lothian

We will also be presenting this year’s winners of the Black Agnes Award with their lovely prizes!

Let’s celebrate strong Dunbar women- past, present and future!

The annual award will recognise modern women from Dunbar who have made valuable contributions to the community. In memory and celebration of Black Agnes, who kept English invaders at bay for six months in 1338 while Dunbar castle was under siege and is the only reason this remains a Scottish town.
