- **Event Description**: Ron Bird was a prominent, colourful and distinctive figure in Aberdeen for almost half a century, with a passion for world music and encouraging community engagement, who passed away in 2025. In his honour we kick off our main festival with a free concert and workshop at Middlefield Community Centre, featuring a new collaboration blending Scottish and international musical style.

“A thrilling collision of styles… an irresistible sound that is both technically brilliant and infectiously joyous.” — Celtic Connections
