Recovery Connects, a unique event bringing together people recovering from addictions to drugs and alcohol, will be held at Queens Park Arena on Sunday, June 30.

Scotland's first alcohol-free music festival is coming to Glasgow soon with free entry and fun for all.

The event aims to challenge the stigma around addiction and celebrate the fact that people who struggle with substance misuse can and do recover. It will be the fifth time that Recovery Connects has been staged, with the festival getting bigger each year. Around 2,300 people attended the 2023 event. Stalls operated by recovery, mental health and homelessness services and local social enterprises will also be running throughout the day.

Helme added: “I don’t think I’ve ever played anything like this before. It’s great to see everybody being themselves. I usually play in front of people who’ve had quite a bit of booze, and I’ve usually had some as well. I didn’t have any today, and it was quite liberating.”
