We’ve created some Refugee Festival Scotland social media resources, which you can find here.

You are welcome to share these on social media, or use your own photos and video clips.

You can find logos and other design elements which you can use to create your own graphics and posters here.

What to post

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

  • Let people know why you’re proud to be part of Refugee Festival Scotland and where they can find more information
  • Share key details about your event – what is happening on the day? When and where will it take place? How can people take part?
  • Create a buzz by posting photos, short video clips and stories about your event and the people involved
  • What does Refugee Festival Scotland mean to you?
  • What are you looking forward to? Is it the food, the music, the dancing? Are you excited about coming together as a community?
  • Remind everyone about your event a few days before it takes place
  • Post some live updates during your event
  • After your event, let everyone know how it went and thank people for coming along

If you are not sure what to write, here are some suggestions:
