THE largest festival of European traditional dance, costume and music has set its sights on Scotland for 2026.

With 6000 participants from across Europe, Europeade is an independent annual celebration of traditional dance held in a new city each year.

Hess will be a guest of Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland and TRACS during the Pomegranates Festival ., on our shared living traditions. I discovered Europeade for the first time in 1998 and was infected by the spirit of this great event from the start. Steve Byrne, director of TRACS, said: “At TRACS we are always looking to build new international partnerships with like-minded organisations who celebrate local traditional cultures, and Europeade is a wonderful example of this. We are very excited to be working with the Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland to bring the event to Scotland and the UK for the first time in 2026 and showcasing all that our own traditions have to offer.

It is curated and produced by the Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland in partnership with TRACS, Moray House School of Education and Sport, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh City Libraries, Dance Base and the Scottish Storytelling Centre.
