REFUEL27 - Wednesday 11th - Saturday 14th August 2027
Venue for Refuel 27 Gordon Castle Estate
– WHAT IS REFUEL? –
A FAMILY FRIENDLY CHRISTIAN FESTIVAL
The Refuel Festival was born in 2017 in response to a prayerful calling to gather Christians together in one place and demonstrate the unity that Jesus prayed for in John 17:23:
“That they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”
Since then, Christians from across the UK and beyond have come together to enjoy an all-age family festival where worship, teaching, fellowship, fun, and encounter with God are at the centre of everything we do.
After a year of stretching the tent pegs in Aviemore for Refuel 2026, we are delighted to return to where it all began, Gordon Castle, as we prepare to celebrate ten years of Refuel in 2027. Stay connected and watch this space as we seek God’s direction and reveal His plans for Refuel27.
With worship leaders and guest speakers joining us from around the world, Refuel welcomes families, churches, youth groups, home groups, campers, and glampers alike for an unforgettable week of holiday, friendship, inspiration, and encounter with Jesus and His people
