It has been held annually since 2005 attracting 2,500 people which essentially doubles the population of the town while the event is being held. The festival takes place in Ullapool with the main stage located only metres from the shore of Loch Broom, in a big-top tent.[1] After the acts on the main stage finish a string of fringe events continue into the early hours, offering live music.[2][3] HistoryThe first Loopallu was held in 2005, with the American rockgrass band Hayseed Dixie promoting the festival and being the headline act.[4] The success of the event was also attributed to support being shown by BBC Radio 2’s Janice Long.[5] The festival has been organised by local promoter Robert Hicks. The name of the festival is the name of the town, spelled backwards. It has played host to Mumford & Sons, Franz Ferdinand, Paolo Nutini.[5] Echo & the Bunnymen and the Levellers.[2] In 2014 the festival added a literary tent, teaming up with the Ullapool Book Festival.[6] That year the ticket quota sold out in advance of the acts being announced, and there were about 2,500 people attending the event on each of the days it was held.[7] The next festival will be held on 28 – 29 September 2018.[8] Lineups2013 lineupThe Enemy, Newton Faulkner, The Temperance Movement, Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire.[9]2014 lineupUtah Saints, Twin Atlantic,[7] The Undertones, Shed Seven, Alabama 3, Public Service Broadcasting, Hunter and the Bear, Caithness-based rock band Neon Waltz and Wishaw-based indie band Vigo Thieves, Mark Radcliffe and his band The Foes.[10][11]References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://metro.co.uk/2012/07/12/feeling-festive-the-best-of-this-summers-alternative-music-events-3373526/ |title=Feeling festive: The best of this summer’s alternative music events |first=Lisa |last=Scott |work=Metro |date=12 July 2012 |accessdate=17 January 2015 }} 2. ^1 {{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2010/may/20/small-music-festivals-top-10 |title=Far from the mainstream festival crowd |first=Chris |last=Salmon |work=The Guardian |date=20 May 2010 |accessdate=18 January 2015}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.stornowaygazette.co.uk/what-s-on/leisure/loopallu-2013-line-up-announced-1-3055559 |title=Loopallu 2013 line up announced |work=Stornoway Gazette |publisher=Johnston Press |date=21 August 2013 |accessdate=18 January 2015}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-29077544 |title=Back to front: Loopallu the festival 'that shouldn't work' |first=Steven |last=McKenzie |work=BBC News |publisher=BBC |date=11 September 2014}} 5. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://www.scotsman.com/what-s-on/music/loopallu-set-for-another-crowd-pleasing-blend-1-3095796 |title=Loopallu set for another crowd-pleasing blend |first=David |last=Pollock |work=The Scotsman |publisher=Johnston Press |date=17 September 2013 |accessdate=18 January 2015}} 6. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.heraldscotland.com/arts-ents/music/writing-to-reach-you-at-loopallu.25484958 |title=Writing to reach you at Loopallu |first=Vic |last=Galloway |work=Sunday Herald |publisher=Newsquest |date=4 October 2014|accessdate=18 January 2015}} 7. ^1 {{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-29407138 |title=Ullapool hullabaloo: Images from Loopallu festival |work=BBC News |publisher=BBC |date=29 September 2014}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.loopallu.co.uk |title=Homepage |website=www.loopallu.co.uk |accessdate=8 June 2018}} 9. ^{{cite news |url=http://entertainment.stv.tv/music/236823-newton-faulkner-announced-as-loopallu-music-festival-headliner/ |title=Newton Faulkner announced as Loopallu music festival headliner |work=STV News |publisher=STV Group (Scotland) |date=21 August 2013 |accessdate=18 January 2015}} 10. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-28834624 |title=Ullapool's Loopallu music festival sold out |work=BBC News |publisher=BBC |date=18 August 2014}} 11. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/highlands/318450/loopallu-sells-out-and-lineup-is-announced/ |title=Loopallu sells out and lineup is announced |first=Jamie |last=McKenzie |work=The Press and Journal |date=18 Aug 2014 |accessdate=18 January 2015}} External links
