The second Shetland Fiddle Week will take place from 4th to 8th August 2025, celebrating the islands' fiddle music tradition and bringing people together to learn about and enjoy the music.

Fiddle Week is put together by two Shetlanders Lynda Anderson and Jenna Reid, both talented fiddle players. With tutors including Ross Couper, Andrew Gifford, Kirsten Hendry, Robbie Leask and Jenna.

Hosted in the islands, the event gives visitors the chance to experience Shetland's unique fiddle style in stunning surroundings. It includes fiddle classes suitable for all abilities, teaching the unique Shetland fiddle style and tunes, and the opportunity to meet some of the islands' best-known and most-talented musicians.

As well as classes and tuition a programme of concerts, talks, sessions and dances will take place throughout the week.
