Trad Music Trust and everyone at The Vault Arts Centre would like to wish all the customers, performers, crew, staff and volunteers that we've had the pleasure of meeting and working with last year, a fantastic 2023. Here's to another year of exciting live music, art and entertainment in Galloway!

There's a huge amount to look forward to this year already including Gavin & Ruth Marwick, Rachel Walker & Aaron Jones, Juliette Lemoine, The Andy Taylor Group, Flook, Good Guy Hank, The Ciaran Ryan Band, HEISK, The Fountaineers and lots more still to be announced! The annual festivals will be bigger and better than ever this year, and there'll be an even busier programme of events throughout the year at The Vault Arts Centre which has proven to be such a fantastic venue and community facility.
Without audiences there wouldn't be events so we'd like to say a particular thank you to everyone that's supported the projects by attending the many events and activities at The Vault Arts Centre, SpringGrass Bluegrass Festival, Newton Stewart & Minnigaff Traditional Music Festival, Blues Weekend and Autumn Trad. Your support, enthusiasm and enjoyment is what keeps us going and is what makes the events so special. Thank you so much.
Finalists every year since 2022, and winners of a 'Highly Recommended' award in the 'Best Social Responsibility' category in 2025, The Vault Arts Centre has done it again in 2026; finalists again in the 'Best Night Out' category! Can we bring home a national award for Newton Stewart this year?
