250 acts will perform live over 11 stages, set in the stunning Raehill Meadows of Dumfries and Galloway, from the 9th-12th of June 2016.
This years headliners Skye and Ross from Morcheeba are bringing their acclaimed live show to Eden. True UK trip-hop legends responsible for one of the seminal albums of the 90’s, Big Calm, they’ll grace Eden’s garden with their uniquely atmospheric and spine tingling sound.

Ninja Tune’s Andreya Triana is on board, fresh from her sell out shows, one incredible Bonobo-produced LP and countless A-List radio plays. Combine the South Londoner’s striking stage presence with her dazzlingly soulful voice and you have one incredibly exciting performance.
