Dr Jane Magill, one of the festival organisers said, “We are delighted to bring MoSSFest to Mugdock Country Park again after such a successful festival last year. We’re hoping for another brilliant sunny day to make the most of the wide range of activities on offer but there will be plenty of tents so we can have a great day come rain or shine.”
