Coll Connections 2026 will start with a Welcome Ceilidh in the evening on Saturday 4th April and will finish in time for participants to catch the boat on Thursday 9th. There will be hot veggie/vegan and Gluten-free food available in An Cridhe on Saturday from 6-7pm. £9 per portion.

There will be some time free for exploring the island, and for those who would like to pack in more learning, we’ve added some extra optional workshops into the programme, during the day on Saturday, Sunday morning, and Monday afternoon. We’re also delighted that we’ve been able to include an option to join pilates and yoga sessions in the mornings before the workshops start.
