About GoNorth

The last goNORTH was Inverness and we think it was our best yet, more music, more industry delegates, film and tv, fashion, more panels and workshops and more music. Add 35,000 people at Rockness where we had the goNORTH Xposure stage, and it's pretty clear why we think it was our best yet.

So how do we follow that - goNORTH goes to Dundee, that's how! And what to expect... more music, more industry delegates, screen writing, song writing, more music and a wealth of workshops and panels for anyone involved in music or the creative industries.

The dates this year for the main showcases are 5th and 6th June, but there will be a week of activity, finishing with a chance to play the goNORTH Xposure stage at Rockness again.

Keep checking the site as we will be starting to put up a lot more information on panels, workshops, showcases, receptions ...
