Julie Fowlis brings free Gaelic concert to Dundee

Julie Fowlis will perform at Whitehall Theatre in Dundee on Saturday, 20 June, with the concert scheduled to begin at 8.00pm. The event is listed as free, and audience members who want to attend are directed to contact the Whitehall Theatre Box Office on 01382 322684.

The concert is aimed at music listeners drawn to live song, traditional Gaelic music and contemporary folk performance. Published by Leisure and Culture Dundee, the listing places Fowlis at the Whitehall Theatre, 12 Bellfield Street, Dundee, DD1 5JA, for a one-night performance with her band.

A Dundee night built around Gaelic song

The Whitehall Theatre date is being billed as a special evening of music and song with Julie Fowlis and her band. The programme marks 21 years since the release of her debut album, “mar a tha mo chridhe/as my heart is”.

That anniversary gives the Dundee concert a clear thread: a look back to the record that opened Fowlis’s recording career, heard through a live performance setting rather than a simple retrospective note. The source describes the evening as blending traditional Gaelic music with contemporary style, which points to a concert shaped by both roots and arrangement.

For Dundee audiences, the appeal is straightforward. It is a chance to hear a recognised Gaelic singer in a city theatre setting, with the practical details already confirmed: date, time, venue and box office contact.

The listing does not give a separate end time. It also does not include confirmed accessibility, food, stall or transport notes, so anyone who needs those details should check directly with the venue before travelling.

Why this concert stands out in the listings

The Dundee event is not presented as a broad festival appearance or an open-ended music series. It is a named concert by Julie Fowlis at a specific theatre, with the anniversary of her debut album giving the evening its focal point.

The source also describes it as a rare opportunity to see Fowlis perform live in Scotland. That wording matters for local readers weighing up whether to make plans: this is a dated, single-evening appearance rather than a recurring listing that can be picked up later in the season.

Fowlis will be joined by what the event description calls her “stellar band”. No individual band members are named in the listing, so the confirmed draw remains the live performance itself, the Gaelic music focus and the 21-year album milestone.

Booking and contact details

Attendance is listed as free, but the practical instruction attached to the event is to contact the Whitehall Theatre Box Office. The box office phone number given in the listing is 01382 322684.

The venue is Whitehall Theatre, 12 Bellfield Street, Dundee, DD1 5JA. Information for the event has been published by Leisure and Culture Dundee, with Whitehall Theatre listed as the contact point for the concert.
