Aberdour Festival has always been a welcoming place for families. From the beach to the village centre, the atmosphere is warm, inclusive and relaxed — the kind of festival where children and grown-ups alike find something to love.

Look out for family highlights across the ten days — including Beach Day and Market Day, which are always a hit with younger visitors.

Children remain the responsibility of their parent or guardian at all times and must be accompanied and appropriately supervised at festival events. Please keep an eye on little ones in busy areas, and make sure children know who to come to if they need help.

If a child becomes separated from their group, please speak to any festival staff member or volunteer immediately. {FOR ADMIN: lost child / meeting point procedure — confirm location and process with your safeguarding lead before publishing.}

Aberdour Festival takes its responsibilities seriously. You can read our full safeguarding policy for more information.

Children and under-18s taking part in festival activities — performances, workshops and similar — will need a parent or guardian's consent before they can join in. Where a consent form is required, you'll be able to complete it online in advance.
