Get The April 2024 Issue of The Skinny!

We've got festival fever! Nope, not the kind you get from sleeping in a tent all weekend – the good, excited kind! We're looking forward to a summer of excellent music festivals in this month's magazine.

We look at the changing face of Scottish trad music ahead of the return of The Reeling festival; we catch up with Terminal V as they expand their groundbreaking techno festival to Croatia; we reflect on the gone-but-not-forgotten T in the Park and the new generation of Scottish festivals trying to fill the void; we pull together an enormous calendar of any and every kind of fest you could possibly want.

Away from the festivals, Art looks at exhibitions by Gabriella Boyd and Rae-Yen Song 宋瑞渊 as well as the returning RSA New Contemporaries, Film meets Disco Boy star Franz Rogowski and Palestinian artist Noor Abed ahead of Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival, Clubs meets some of the leading lights in Scotland's soundsystem scene, Theatre reports on a new adaptation of Sunset Song... it's another busy one.

Pick up your copy of the April issue of The Skinny at one of the venues listed below, or get your copy delivered direct to your door (with a few treats thrown in) by subscribing to The Skinny.

These are our regular distribution locations; copies make their way around Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee in the first week of the month. If you can't find a copy at a location on the list, drop us a line on Twitter or Instagram
