The North Atlantic Song Convention (NASC) returns to Edinburgh's Scottish Storytelling Centre from 6-8 March 2026 for three inspiring days celebrating traditional folk song and singing from across the North Atlantic Region.
Join us for cross-cultural programme of concerts, workshops, panel discussions, and intimate song circles that bring together singers, musicians, researchers, and enthusiasts from across the North Atlantic region and beyond.
Whether you're a seasoned performer, an academic researching folk traditions, a community song leader, or someone who simply cherishes the beauty of traditional song, NASC offers a genuinely inclusive space where every voice is valued.
