Based in the heart of Glasgow, St Roch’s (of the Irish Minstrels CCÉ branch) has been a powerhouse of traditional music for decades, famously led by the legendary Frank McArdle. While they are renowned for their championship-winning ceili bands, their "Big Band" format brings a massive, wall-of-sound experience to the Centre Stage.

Expect a vibrant fusion of Irish and Scottish traditions, delivered with the trademark spirit and technical precision that has seen St Roch’s produce some of the finest traditional musicians in the country. It’s the perfect Friday afternoon slot – full of lift, drive, and a genuine sense of Glasgow’s deep-rooted folk community. Come along and see why this group remains one of the most respected and well-loved institutions in the city's music scene.
