This is Scotland’s most famous shindig as you’ve never seen it before: a riotous assembly of spellbinding tunes, prodigious piping and outrageous dancing. Irreverent, invigorating and exhilarating, it’s the essential Edinburgh experience.

This union of the best of Scotland’s traditional musicians with award-winning theatre makers, laced with comedy and captivating solo performances, promises to raise the roof of the magnificent Spiegeltent, and yes, everyone gets to dance!

Come prepared to party!
