Since 2001, Blazin’ Fiddles have hosted a wonderful week of tuition, concerts, ceilidhs and craic, welcoming thousands of folk to the little town of Beauly in the Highlands of Scotland.
A short drive from Inverness, Beauly is a gem of a place, a truly welcoming town where everyone is part of the community.
The classes take place all over the town; The Phipps Hall, Morison’s Iron Mongers, The Caley Hotel, The British Legion and of course
The Lovat Hotel – Blazers head quarters for the week and also home to fiddles, guitar and piano classes, delivered by none other than team Blazin’ Fiddles and our fabulous guest tutors!
