This concert brings together outstanding artists who showcase the creativity and collaboration at the heart of NAFCo.

This milestone concert brings together a fantastic line-up of artists whose music bridges generations and geographies. Featuring performances from rising Canadian star Mary Frances Leahy, the dynamic Catriona Macdonald & Annbjørg Lien Band, the fresh Scottish–Galician duo Darach, and a special set from the NAFCo House Band — a collective of talented musicians from Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire bringing their trademark energy and local spirit to the stage.
