Skelmorlie is accessible by train, boat, bus and car.
We recommend using public transport to get here!
Skelmorlie is a small village with limited parking and to ensure the event runs smoothly, we want to minimise traffic and ensure we don’t block access for residents.
If we can all make an effort here it means we are more likely to gain support for another event in the future!
There is a small amount of parking at the community centre, surrounding streets and the train station if you take your car.
Getting here by bus
There is a bus stop immediately outside the train station which we recommend using. You can use the 578A to come right up to the community centre or a 10-15 minute walk up the hill.

Getting here by train
Wemyss Bay train station is a 10-15 minute walk from most venues. The trains run approximately every 30 minutes, you can plan your train journey here. The 587A bus ties in with the train times and can take you up to the Community Centre where the festival hub is located.
Getting here by ferry
Wemyss Bay – Rothesay Summer Ferry Timetable
The ferry terminal is combined with the train station, with a bus stop outside. It’s a 10 – 15 minute walk to the festival hub at the community centre, or you can use the 578A bus if you don’t fancy walking up the hill.
Shuttle Bus
There is a shuttle bus which runs between our venues slightly further away from the hub – like the beach or secret garden. Any activity which you have to register at the hub for will get you to your venue using the shuttle bus!
