Governance and Annual Meetings
The Nairn Festival is governed by two bodies. The Committee, which takes care of the planning and artistic direction of the festival as an event, and the Board, who take care of the governance and responsibilities of the festival as a charity. We always invite new volunteers to join our Committee and Board; if you are interested in getting involved, please contact info@nairnfestival.co.uk.
