Happy New Year from all of us at F\u00e8is Ph\u00e0islig!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019d like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who has been such a valued part of our journey over the past year. We can\u2019t wait to see what 2026 has in store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2025 was a defining year for F\u00e8is Ph\u00e0islig, marking a decade of music, learning, and community – and our busiest year yet. We unveiled a refreshed logo and brand identity to reflect ten years of growth and creativity. F\u00e8is Week 2025 was one of our most successful to date, welcoming a record 197 participants. Through our Stramash for Schools Tour, we visited 45 schools across Renfrewshire, introducing thousands of pupils to traditional music and Gaelic language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We launched our exciting 10 Year Anniversary celebrations, introduced the F\u00e8is Ph\u00e0islig Roadshow – a series of free pop-up come and try sessions – and established our Youthboard, giving young people the opportunity to share ideas, provide feedback, and help shape the future of F\u00e8is Ph\u00e0islig. Our Gaelic Choir enjoyed an outstanding year, with performances at a wide range of events and a major win at M\u00f2d Loch Abar, while our Ceilidh Trail reached its sixth year, delivering 24 performances in libraries, care homes, community venues, festivals, and collaborative events, engaging audiences of all ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With our 10 Year Anniversary celebrations continuing, we head into 2026 with exciting plans ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
