This October, we will offer a 5-day residential Fèis experience for young people from P4 to S6 from Monday 16th to Friday 20th October 2023. There will be separate accommodation and parallel timetables running for children in P4-7 and for young people from S2 to S6. Pupils in S1 can choose to take part in either option. We will publish more details and open for bookings in July.
Taking place during the October holidays, young people can choose different class options from a huge list, including various musical instruments, Gaelic song, sound engineering, composition, song writing, drama, dance and more!
We also offer hire instruments free of charge.
All of our tutors are experienced, professional musicians, skilled in working with young people. We also have a pool of supervisors (house parents) and volunteers who help our events run smoothly. Young people are supervised at all times and we work in accordance with Child Protection and Health & Safety Guidelines. Our staff are all members of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups Scheme administered by Disclosure Scotland.
We are committed to making traditional music accessible to all and to eliminate barriers for participation. If you would like to talk in confidence about support for learners with disabilities or specific access requirements for your child, please contact Christian at christian.gamauf@feisrois.org
