Put together by youth organisation mPower, mFest is a brand new music and arts celebration that’s seemingly come out of nowhere to put Stirling on the festival map. On the music side of things, Hadouken! and New Young Pony Club (pictured) play the opening night, with The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Three Blind Wolves and Shlomo and the Vocal Orchestra also appearing across the weekend. Comedians set to appear include Daniel Sloss, Susan Calman and Aussie comedy rockers The Axis of Awesome, while theatrical productions of Controlled Falling Project and Decky Does a Bronco will also be playing. In short, plenty to get excited about.

Various venues, Stirling, Fri 30 Jul-Mon 2 Aug.
