This fund, developed in partnership with The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, is aimed at nurturing the ambition, enthusiasm and talent of exceptional young artists engaged in traditional music and dance - with a priority focus on piping, drumming, Highland dance and traditional fiddle playing.
Through this fund, we look to support a small but ambitious programme of inspiring projects with exceptional young traditional music and dance artists from across Scotland.

The total budget available is £150,000 with a minimum award of £5,000 and a maximum award of £20,000.
