Potfest Scotland 2026 ceramic stands under marquees at Scone Palace, Perth

Under large marquees across the Palace lawns, you’ll find around 90 studio ceramic artists. Wander the grounds, gardens, and pinetum, talk to makers, discover what fuels their passion for clay, and buy direct from the people who make the work. Make a full day of it and soak up all things clay at this Scottish celebration of ceramics.

A gallery of 2026 exhibitors will be available in the New Year.

The Cromartie team will be attending throughout the weekend. Come and chat to us about kilns, wheels, bisque, glazes, tools, and studio essentials — whether you’re a hobby potter, an established maker, or running a pottery or Paint Your Own Pottery studio.
