It's all in the detail... From DIY chalkboard signs to steamed up windows from the singing inside, printed out posters to neon stage lights, #IVW26 was not only about going to see amazing music, but about noticing all the details that go into making the venue exactly what it is. 💛

A stage before the music starts feels special every time 💛
These rooms may look quiet here, but they soon became home to unforgettable sets, first gigs, favourite bands, and huge moments during #IVW26 ✨
Here’s to the venues that make it all happen and to #IVW27... We can't wait 🙌

Brogeal packed out The Venue, Dumfries with electric energy, Nova Twins returned to tear the roof off the The Amersham Arms, + Eve Goodman painted the walls of Caffi Isa with her tender, soulful voice. Independent venues. Unforgettable nights.
