Join the Lothian Gaelic Choir for a pop-up performance in the relaxed surroundings of the Storytelling Court to celebrate Seachdain na Gàidhlig 2025 (World Gaelic Week). The group's 30min performances will start at 1pm and 2pm and all are welcome to enjoy.
Lothian Gaelic Choir was formed in 1985 and has been competing at the Royal National Mòd, Scotland’s premier Gaelic festival, ever since. They sing a wide variety of Gaelic music for fun and enjoyment and regularly perform at events and concerts in and around Edinburgh. In its short history the choir has enjoyed success at several Royal National Mòds, including winning the Area Puirt-a-Beul competition three times (2015, 2018 & 2023) and picking up the coveted Lovat & Tullibardine Shield on two occasions, most recently in 2018. Most of the choir’s members live in the Edinburgh area, but they come from all across Scotland (and further afield), brought together by a shared desire to promote Gaelic music and culture. Their members have a range of Gaelic knowledge; some are in the early stages of their learning while others are fluent or native speakers of the language. They rehearse on Thursday evenings from 7:30pm to 9:30pm.
This event is part of Easy Sundays, a monthly session of stories, music, community and friendship, where warm welcome awaits with a variety of activities for all to enjoy. So come find a space to relax amongst friends, old and new. Supported by the Thrive Network alongside the Scottish Storytelling Centre to create a warm and welcoming space for the community.
