Celebrate the Summer Solstice at East Sands with a Weekend of Wellness

Fife Sports and Leisure Trust is inviting people across Fife and beyond to celebrate the longest day of the year at the Summer Solstice Yoga Festival, returning to East Sands Leisure Centre, from Friday 19th to Sunday 21st June 2026.

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Fife coastline, the three-day festival offers a unique opportunity to reconnect, recharge and embrace the summer solstice through movement, mindfulness, music and community.

Following the success of last year’s festival, which attracted more than 550 attendances and received overwhelmingly positive feedback from participants, the 2026 programme features an expanded timetable of wellbeing experiences suitable for all abilities.

Festivalgoers can choose from full weekend tickets (£80), day tickets (£30 for Friday or Sunday, and £60 for Saturday), or single-event tickets (£10). All tickets are subject to a booking fee. The full weekend ticket offers exceptional value, giving participants access to an extensive programme of classes, activities and experiences, all in one stunning coastal setting.

Highlights from the 2026 programme include:

  • Welcome Summer Solstice Silent Disco with International Fitness Showcase Presenter of the Year 2026, David Muir
  • Sunset and Sunrise Yoga sessions overlooking the beach
  • Live music by the campfire
  • Coldwater Dip and Welcome Gathering led by Julie Wilson Nimmo, author and host of Jules and Greg’s Wild Swim
  • Open-air stretch tent with Outsider Events
  • Acro and Partner Yoga
  • Pilates, Hatha, Vinyasa and Ashtanga Yoga
  • Sound Bath and guided relaxation experiences
  • Musical Theatre Fitness
  • Live coaching
  • Festival partner Scottish Seaside Sauna will offer a 50% discount on all sauna sessions across the weekend
  • Onsite caterers Surf’s Up will be open throughout the event, offering 15% off their full menu, including teas, coffees, fresh juices, health snacks, doughnuts and mocktails.

The festival will be led by a team of experienced instructors and wellbeing professionals from across Fife, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone, whether they are completely new to yoga and wellness experiences or regular participants.

Evelyn Crichton, Fitness Experience Lead at Fife Sports and Leisure Trust, added:

“The Summer Solstice Yoga Festival is all about bringing people together to move, relax and celebrate wellbeing in one of the most beautiful coastal locations in Scotland. There really is something for everyone across the weekend, from calming yoga and mindfulness sessions to fun, energetic activities and opportunities to simply slow down and enjoy the atmosphere.”

The Summer Solstice Yoga Festival is expected to attract high demand. With limited places available, early booking is recommended to avoid disappointment.
