Celtic Connections 2026 – tickets now on sale

Celtic Connections is back in January with a brilliant line-up of global music. It’s the perfect way to start a big year for Glasgow, with the Commonwealth Games and other exciting events on the horizon.

Now in its 33rd year, Celtic is Europe’s biggest winter music festival. It celebrates trad, folk, roots and world music – and now includes blues, soul, Americana and more.

From 15 January to 1 February, the festival will bring over 300 events to more than 25 venues across the city. Over 1,200 artists will take part – from headline acts to rising stars.

Tickets for the first shows are now on sale. We will add more gigs soon, so keep an eye out.
