Brittany is coming once again to Scotland!
We, at BreizhAlba, are delighted to invite you for a fantastic weekend of Breton music and dance on the 1st and 2nd of November, 2024 across our beloved cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow!
Our friends and usual suspects from Brittany, musicians Jean-Luc Thomas (Flute) and Gabriel Faure (Fiddle), are back to our delight and will accompany us throughout the weekend! Local musicians will take to the stage too.

Programme of the Friday, November 1st 2024, at the Institut Francais d’Ecosse, Edinburgh:
- Dance workshop in the afternoon - 6pm-7.30pm
- Fest-noz with our Breton comperes as well as local musicians, starts at 7.30pm and finishes at 10.30pm
- Galettes and crepes available from 6 to 8.30pm
We will have a music workshop on the Saturday 2nd November in Glasgow, as part of the festival, more information there: https://www.facebook.com/events/1606737146595858
Jean-Luc Thomas & Gabriel Faure started playing as a duet in 2020. They together blend traditional music with the accents and rhythms gleaned along their musical voyages in Brittany, the Middle East, Europe and South America. Both seasoned Breton fest-noz musicians, there is no doubt they will delight our ears throughout the day! Expect a real treat!
We hope to see many of you on those 2 days!
