The Cairngorms Cèilidh Trail is one of seven Cèilidh Trails organised by local Fèisean under the umbrella of Fèisean nan Gàidheal.
The Cairngorms Cèilidh Trail, now in its ninth year, offers training and performance opportunities to musicians aged 16 to 22yrs. Some of them may be considering a career in traditional music and the tour gives them a supported taste of life on the road at the same time as sharing their skills and enthusiasm with a wide audience. Working with local businesses and promoters to develop cultural tourism throughout the National Park, the Cèilidh Trail offers a unique experience.
“The Cairngorms Ceilidh Trail is a great opportunity to share musical heritage and it has influenced me immensely in many ways. I feel I have gained a lot out of the two weeks and feel I have progressed in both arranging sets and stage presentation. Ceilidh Trail is a fantastic opportunity to meet new people and visit new places and I am vastly grateful that I was given such a great opportunity.” Kaitlin
