About this Event

Welcome to the Big NAFCo Gathering (BNG)!

The Big NAFCo Gathering is a new addition to NAFCo, created to celebrate its 25th year - and everyone is invited to join the celebrations!

During the festival, everyone will come together in Union Terrace Gardens to perform two selected tunes, alongside dancers taking part in an Orcadian Strip the Willow and a St. Bernard's Waltz.

The event is open to anyone who plays an instrument, and anyone who would like to dance is also very welcome to join in.

We have two sets of tunes for musicians to learn, download the music sheets below and watch our musicians perform the tunes on our YouTube channel.
