WATCH: First live gig at Universal Hall since relaxation of Covid rules

The Universal Hall in Moray is ready to host its first live event since Covid restrictions eased.

Acclaimed singers Brian Ó hEadhra and Fionnag NicChoinnich will create an intimate performance of traditional and contemporary songs from the Highlands of Scotland, Ireland, and beyond on Saturday, June 26 at 7.30pm.

Their latest album Càirdeas was recently released to high critical and public acclaim and focuses on the importance of family and friends.

There will be a limited number of tickets to watch this show live, with a socially distanced seating arrangement.

Tickets will be sold on a first-come-first-served-basis and there is also an opportunity to watch the show live streamed in the comfort of your own home.

However, Hall spokesman Dave Till said that the real excitement comes from the fact that this is the first live show in the Universal Hall for over a year.

He added: "We are keen to have audiences that will experience the intimacy of being close to the performance - even with the social distancing rules."

Tickets for the live show (£10, £5 U'16s + 10 per cent booking fee) and live streamed (by donation) are available via links on the Universal Hall website - www.universalhall.co.uk
