Troon is gearing up for one of Scotland’s biggest indoor rock events of the year as WinterStorm storms back into Troon Concert Hall next week – and with the final countdown underway, organisers are issuing a low-ticket warning for every single day of the four-day festival.

Running Thursday to Sunday, WinterStorm brings together an eclectic and electrifying line-up that spans generations and styles, featuring more than 40 bands across two stages. This year’s bill includes major names such as:
• Ugly Kid Joe
• The Sweet
• High Fade
• The Skids
• British Lion featuring Iron Maiden’s Steve Harris
• The Runrig Experience
• Colonel Mustard & The Dijon Five

From melodic rock to 80s NWOBHM, blues, punk and funk, dark metal and some of the best new rock bands emerging in the UK, WinterStorm continues its tradition of delivering one of the most diverse and exciting festival line-ups in the country.
Alongside the music, fans can enjoy 20 real ales, a Scottish Kitchen menu, and the unique atmosphere of a true indoor seaside festival, complete with the warmth, camaraderie and community WinterStorm is known for.
WinterStorm has also benefitted from the invaluable support of EventScotland, whose backing helps promote off-season events in out-of-city destinations. This support has played an important role in strengthening WinterStorm’s reach and helping extend the tourism season along Scotland’s beautiful west coast.
Rebecca Edser, Head of EventScotland, said:

“We’re delighted to be supporting WinterStorm for the first time through our National Funding Programme and seeing it bring such a strong international line-up to Troon.
The festival has a fantastic relationship with its local community, working with accommodation providers, travel partners and local businesses as suppliers. With 75% of tickets being sold outside of Ayrshire over its nine-year history, I’m sure Troon will continue to provide a warm welcome for visitors from across Scotland and further afield this winter.”

With demand surging in the final days, organisers confirm that day and evening tickets for all four days are now in very limited supply. Fans hoping to experience this year’s event are encouraged to act fast.
All remaining tickets are available exclusively via Skiddle.
