Celtic Friends

Share the Music

Celtic Friends are at the very heart of the festival. Over the years our Friends have supported Celtic Connections’ award-winning education programme, championed up-and-coming artists from Scotland and around the world, and enjoyed a host of benefits into the bargain!

This year (as always), we’re very excited about our New Voices commissions, and we want to share them with you. As part of your Celtic Friends benefits, choose one New Voices concert, and enjoy the work some of Scotland’s most exciting new musical talent.

That’s all been a bit of a leap into the unknown – but then that’s the amazing thing about New Voices, having the chance to turn these sort of things into reality.
