Stay Fresh Festival 2025
2025 - It's a Wrap!
That’s a wrap! Stay Fresh Music Festival 2025 raises a record breaking £9.5k for charity during a SOLD OUT event
​
Returning to ‘Hollywood’ for the festival's 7th year, Stay Fresh delivered the biggest blockbuster Dunoon has ever seen. Building on the success of last year, the event once again broke all fundraising records, raising £9.5k which means we’ve now raised £44,500 for charity since our inception in 2018.
​
This year the funds will be shared between Dunoon Burgh Hall, Poppy Scotland (Dunoon), The Underheugh Ark Rescue, Prostate Cancer UK and the Stay Fresh Sports fund.
​
As spectators entered via the red carpet, the stage was set for award winning performances from The Lynsey Dolan Band, K-LYN, The Hellfire Club, Miller Crossan, Liam Somerville and The Streetlight Band, Toast and SOAP. To finish the night, an all star cast made up this year’s Stay Fresh Supergroup featuring performers from the bands playing on the night, coming together to create a very special experience for the crowd.
​​
​The Supergroup played a set full of movie themed songs, highlighting the incredible talent on display throughout the night.
​
This year was our biggest attendance so far, having pre-sold over 350 tickets before the night of the event, the demand for tickets was high. After a SOLD OUT event, it’s proof Stay Fresh Music Festival 2025 was the place to be.
The festival would not be such a success without the support of its incredible volunteers, generous donations, our partnership with Studio Cinema - Dunoon, the staff at The LiveArgyll Queens Hall, our technicians, the performers who all give their time for free, our photographers Kenclark Photography, CBMusicPhotography, videographer Captured by Danyelle and of course the constant support of the community that makes it such a good atmosphere
