STIRLING'S NO LIMITS MUSIC FESTIVAL 23 to 25 May
The voice is the most intimate instrument of expression and at this year’s festival we have at least two of the most beautiful around in Victoria Bergsman from Taken by Trees and the iconic haunting sound of Annette Peacock who has not performed in the UK for over 20 years.

Le Weekend ventures outside of the heavy Tolbooth walls this year into an even more imposing space of the Church of the Holy Rude. David Fennessy’s new piece for organ and percussion will explore this beast of a machine filling the church’s gothic halls.

This year the hub of the festival will be the café bar, where the National Jazz Trio of Scotland will keep the intimacy direct with their delicate melodic twisted grooves. Bill Wells, from the trio, will also launch his very own Real Book, DJs will play some discreet tunes and Monorail will have well chosen product for sale.
Join us for three days of no limits music experience.
