Talk, Trad Arts, Storytelling

What is... Traditional Storytelling?

with Tom Muir | Edinburgh Tradfest 2026

(Thu 7 May: 6pm)

Storytelling comes in all shapes and sizes, but how do we know what makes it ‘traditional’ or not? Join Orkney storyteller Tom Muir as he brings a fresh Northern sea breeze to this sometimes misty matter.

If joining us in-person, stay on afterwards to hear Tom in action at one of our regular celebrated Hearth Fire Sessions (ticketed separately).
