Europe’s largest winter music festival, Celtic Connections is Glasgow’s annual folk, roots and world music event, celebrating Celtic music and its connections with cultures across the globe. Responding to the current public health situation, for 2021 the Celtic Connections team and partners have put together a digital-first festival. The way music fans are enjoying live music and entertainment has changed radically, and the pandemic has a major impact on the livelihoods of musicians, technical crews, venue staff and the associated supply-chain businesses. With the full programme set to be announced on 2nd December, the Festival will present concerts using an online platform, every night between Friday 15th January and Tuesday 2nd February 2021, with top-quality performances from some of the biggest names on the Scottish music scene and beyond, appearing on our screens.
