The roots of the Garden Party can be easily traced to the 2006 pan-continental art-clash known as The Graffiti Project. Sao Paolo’s most notorious guerrilla street artists flew to Scotland and painted an ancient castle at the behest of the owners. For a month the country park in which Kelburn Castle is situated had a carnival atmosphere about it, aided by visiting pipe bands and Samba groups, and the spirit of cross-cultural appreciation flourished..
While Largs’ painted pile attracted international media attention, the private parties that followed became a local phenomenon, with bands, DJs and friends descending on the park for a weekend of good music and happy times. In 2008 the generous souls behind these get-togethers took the momentous leap of faith and decided to launch an annual full scale festival to celebrate and nurture the spirit of the Graffiti Project and the notorious parties that followed.
