Scottish chart-topping sensation Callum Beattie has been confirmed among the headline acts at this year’s Checkout Scotland music festival in support of GroceryAid.
The Scottish Committee of convenience and grocery industry charity GroceryAid has announced that Scottish chart-topping singer-songwriter Callum Beattie is to perform at this year’s Checkout Scotland music festival. Beattie will be playing at Checkout a matter of weeks before performing at the 12,000 capacity OVO Hydro.
Beattie has gone from selling just 30 tickets in small grassroots venues to selling out the iconic OVO Hydro in the space of four years, a remarkable rise that highlights his talent, determination and strong connection with fans.
His first two albums both reached number one on the Scottish Album Charts and with his third album on the horizon, Callum is set to reach global audiences.
In addition to his stellar music career, Callum and his manager have raised over £750,000 for various charities over the past four years, using their platform to make a meaningful difference in communities across the country. And he’ll be doing it once again on 28 August.
With already half of the tickets to this year’s Checkout Scotland already sold, if you want to be there to see Callum Beattie while also helping raised much-needed funds for GroceryAid, get in touch now to book your tickets.
All ticket enquires should be directed to Checkout Scotland 2025 Chair Antony Begley (abegley@55north.com).
Begley commented: “To secure a homegrown top-notch talent like Callum Beattie for Checkout Scotland is a massive coup, particularly as he will be playing to a packed Hydro just weeks later.
“We’re expecting tickets to sell out fast so I would urge everyone who wants to be there and help us raise awareness of GroceryAid to get in touch now to make sure they will be at one of the highlights of the Scottish local retailing calendar.”
The Scottish Committee of GroceryAid has also confirmed that Checkout Scotland will once again be returning to the unique and atmospheric Barras Art & Design (BAaD).
GroceryAid Scotland Chairman Matthew Howie commented: “BAaD is the perfect venue for Checkout Scotland with a great vibe and a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces which help create that unique festival vibe.
“We are delighted to be returning to BAaD and we hope to see the entire local retailing industry come together for another fantastic day of great music and great fun while also helping industry colleagues facing hard times.”
