WinterStorm Rock Weekender
STAGE TIMES HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED!
WinterStorm is set to blow a Hoolie once again, with almost 40 bands ready to shake the two stages, this year's festival is shaping up to be one of our best and most diverse yet.
The complete line up for WinterStorm 2024, held each November in Troon on the west coast of Scotland, has been unveiled with another four days of superb and varied rock music, line ups and multiple genres across the three days and two stages.
This year, the eight version of the event, features bands from eleven different countries and everything from melodic European metal to southern blues rock, a touch of Americana, a pinch of folk rock a large smattering of Prog, a wee bit of old school NWOBHM, some classic Lizzy, at least six female or female fronted main stage bands and an appropriate amount of AOR added in to the mix it feels like one of the most varied line ups yet.
These are clearly subject to changes so please check back regularly
WinterStorm has always been marketed as a full weekend and almost 90% of our ticket sales remain across the three days of the event but we have always released day tickets three months after the main have been sold. For 2024 we have added another tier of ticket to allow those that can't escape the nine to five to have access through our WinterStorm Evening Sessions Ticket.
We have now released a limited number of WinterStorm Evening Sessions Tickets with access from 7.00pm only at the price of £40 per person.
We know life can throw its curveballs (and tighten those purse strings), but there's nothing quite like WinterStorm and we'd love to see you in Troon again or for the first time if you've never been before.
Too far? No, we're closer than you may think. There's a travel page featured below with information on where WinterStorm is and various ways to get here from across the UK and Europe.
Join us and you'll receive a warm Scottish welcome, a great set up and two stages showcasing the best of classic and modern rock. And for those moments when ('if'?) your legs need a rest, our comfy seats upstairs have great views of the main stage.
Too late to book? No Ayrshire in November has plenty of rooms for all budgets. We have some great value accommodation packages available at a wide range of hotels and B&Bs. These include your event tickets and rooms at specially selected hotels close by and we can even help with your inbound flights. It's the perfect way to make your trip hassle-free.
