Hands Up For Trad

Hands Up for Trad exists to promote Scottish traditional music through Education, Information and Advocacy to Artists, Audiences and Participants both Nationally and Internationally.

Hands Up for Trad’s Programme includes widely recognised and popular cultural events, which form, shape and contribute considerably to the traditional music landscape.

All Hands Up for Trad’s projects work together as part of a coherent strategy of interconnected events, providing a meaningful, creative lifelong journey for artists and participants by providing them with skills and opportunities which are enjoyed by audiences from across Scotland and beyond.
