Discover the legacy of Vilmos Csipkés, one of Hungary’s last traditional Roma storytellers, led by Boglárka Klitsie-Szabad of the Hungarian Heritage House.

The Scottish International Storytelling Festival 2025 tracks a rich northern arc which bridges Finland to Iceland, and connects Germany to Norway, with Scotland a sea road junction in the middle. Don’t miss out on the tales and music or the close experience of nature. As winter gathers round the hearth fires, look north to join the merry dancers in the sky!
