Manran Live at Stranraer

Don't miss the fabulous Gary Innes, Ewen Henderson, Ross Saunders, Ryan Murphy, Mark Scobbie and Craig Irving, otherwise known as Scottish supergroup Mànran, live at The Fitba Bar, Stranraer, this coming Friday 7th December from 7:30pm.

Mànran are one of the best-known and best-loved Scottish bands on the scene today. Now with three highly regarded studio albums under their belt and seven triumphant years of blowing audiences away with healthy amounts of passion, poise, virtuosity and vigour, Mànran are continuing to explore new musical and geographical territory.

2017 was arguably the band’s busiest on record with full tours of Germany, Denmark and a non-stop summer packed full with Scottish and European festival dates. 2017 culminated in a welcome return to Scottish TV screens as Mànran welcomed the New Year on BBC Alba’s Cèilidh na Bliadhn’ Ùire New Year special.

2018 got off to a flier with the release of the band’s latest single ‘Là Inbhir Lòchaidh’ to great critical acclaim, yet another sold-out headline show at Celtic Connections and a highly successful tour of France. Since then, an action-packed summer has seen the band perform all around Scotland and at festivals in Luxembourg, France, Germany and Spain whilst also working on new material for their upcoming fourth studio album, set to be completed by the end of the year.

Tickets are on sale now priced at £10 / £5 (Under 27's).  Simply click the button below.

Highland dancing competition unable to go ahead this year

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the postponement of this year's Highland dancing competition at Newton Stewart & Minnigaff Traditional Music & Dance Festival. Continued funding cuts have meant some very difficult decisions have had to be made, however we do hope to bring this back in 2025.
