Animal Magic
SISF 2026 | Family Event
(Sat 10 Oct: 11am)
Travel to lands of myth and legend. Meet magical beasts and birds and bugs. Learn about wondrous creatures of our own world. Together, we’ll rediscover ways to enjoy and protect nature’s magic. Part interactive storytelling performance, part craft workshop, all fun!
Inspired by the storyteller's experience with the Jane Goodall Institute and Marine Conservation Society, Animal Magic invites young explorers and their grown-ups to (re)connect with the birds and beasts around us, retelling a classic Irish fairy tale to explore and celebrate the wonders of the natural world. Might their realness make these creatures all the more magical?

Join us in the school holidays and throughout the Scottish International Storytelling Festival 2026 for a selection of storytelling performances and events for all the family. This year’s Festival explores the rich relationship between storytelling and the natural world through the theme Bird and Beast. Across Scotland, from Shetland to Dumfries and Galloway, the Western Isles to Aberdeenshire, we invite audiences to discover stories that illuminate the place of bird and beast in our traditions, folklore and myths. Gather round, follow the trail of feathers and footprints, and let your imagination take flight.
This event is most suitable for children aged 3-6 years. Each child ticket entitles the booker to up to two accompanying adults free with additional adults costing £8. Please book a ticket below for everyone attending.
