What's on in Dunfermline this week?

This week in Dunfermline features community-led events reflecting local engagement, from family activities to live music and comedy. At Westfield Park, children can join interactive storytelling sessions hosted by the Dunfermline Storytelling Collective, while parents may attend crafting workshops at Masterton Community Hub. These take place on weekends across green spaces with accessible pathways.

For adults seeking movement or mindfulness, outdoor yoga is offered each Thursday afternoon near the River Leven footpath, led by a local wellness collective using open-air venues adjacent to heritage sites such as Dunfermline Abbey’s ruins.

Live music continues in central Dunfermline pubs, with solo performers and tribute acts appearing weekly at McQ's on High Street. The Botanist Edinburgh has hosted themed nights featuring acoustic sets from emerging Scottish artists over the past fortnight.

Comedy events include stand-up gigs focused on parenting life and regional identity, some of which have been recorded for potential future broadcasts via local radio stations.

A series of inclusive workshops for young carers and new parents are scheduled across Dunfermline’s social service centres. This Friday evening includes a session titled "Parenting in Partnership," co-facilitated by health professionals from the Fife NHS hub. These events reflect ongoing civic initiatives supported through local council grants.

For those attending: times vary between 10am and 9pm; most are held at venues with car access, though public transport links remain limited for residents in Duloch and Masterton due to inconsistent bus frequency during peak hours.
