It has been a tough year for the arts but it's nothing compared to those suffering from, or affected by, this terrible illness and our hearts go out, this Hogmanay, to those people and to those that work tirelessly to protect us, and provide for us. We are all dearly hoping for a happier New Year.

On behalf of everyone at Trad Music Trust, Newton Stewart & Minnigaff Traditional Music & Dance Festival and The Vault Arts Centre, we hope you have as good a New Year as you can and that, like us, you are very much looking forward to when we can mix and socialise, in safety, to enjoy music, laughs and love again.

Please stay safe this Winter and we look forward to seeing you soon.

7th annual music festival

The 7th annual Newton Stewart & Minnigaff Traditional Music & Dance Festival will now take place over the 9th-11th July 2021 following the Trust's decision to re-schedule this year's event due to Covid-19. We are in negotiation with the artists booked for this year and hope to secure them all for 2021, plus a few extra surprises, so we'll be back with another packed programme of traditional music and dance next year. We hope you'll join us.
