Join Connecting Threads in Peebles for the second day of the inaugural Tweed River Festival!
The festival is the culmination of Connecting Threads’ 2025 programming theme, Watery Commons.
Tickets and times
The Tweed River Festival programme has been conceived to facilitate ideas, experiences and conversation across the day. Accordingly, each ticket covers your participation for a full day. We encourage visitors to try to attend for the full day they book for, if possible.
Each day’s programme involves simultaneous workshops across several sites. We will send out a form closer to the festival so that visitors who wish to do so can book into specific activities in advance. You can also just book your day ticket and go with the flow on the day.
All tickets for Tweed River Festival are on a pay-what-you-can basis. We believe that everyone should be able to attend our programme. Paying for your ticket(s) will help support our continued activities.
Access
Please see the access info page on our website for details on Peebles Burgh Hall, Peebles Gallery and individual workshops.
DAY 2: CARRYING, CROSSING, COMMONING
Focusing on community and the river catchment, we think about the river as both boundary and connector, shaping cultures and landscapes.
