Unique Events announced today that Burns&Beyond will return in January with a series of headline live concerts and events, with The Twilight Sad and Kinnaris Quintet the first artists to be announced.
Burns&Beyond, in its fifth incarnation celebrates the life and legacy of Robert Burns through a programme of traditional and contemporary art and culture, from across Scotland… and beyond. The inaugural festival in 2019 welcomed over 30,000 visitors, with audiences of all ages discovering the best in live music, art, comedy and more in some of the capital’s best-known buildings and more secretive spaces.
Alan Thomson, Unique Events, said: “We are thrilled to announce the return of Burns&Beyond for its fifth year, presenting an exciting programme of incredible artists from across Scotland in the beautiful Assembly Rooms. We’ll be releasing more event details in the coming weeks, ensuring Edinburgh can once again celebrate Burns Night in style.”
