Edinburgh FluteFling 27-29 March 2026

The Edinburgh FluteFling returns to the Heart of Newhaven Centre 27-29 March 2026, featuring another lineup of some of the finest traditional flute and whistle players.

We’re delighted to announce that this year’s tutors are Claire Mann (Dumfries and Galloway), Tina Jordan Rees (Glasgow) and Hammy Hamilton (County Cork, Ireland). All three will be performing and teaching over the weekend, which includes a concert, workshops for flutes and whistles, and sessions in the city to be announced.

All three tutors will teach all attendees and links to any resources will be emailed to ticket holders 2 weeks before the event. Look out for updates and further details on this website.

Tickets

We have faced increasing costs over the past three years and have done our best to keep ticket prices down. Bundle tickets offer the best value.

Tickets go on general sale during the first week of February and will be announced on the website and social media

Accommodation: We don’t have any deals, but people have found the Premier Inn near the venue to be suitable. There is also a Holiday Inn Express in Leith.

We’re really looking forward to seeing you there if you can make it.
