Virtual Programme 2020

Purchase Our Virtual Concerts as they go Live

Our Masters of Tradition Virtual Festival allows you to enjoy our festival from the comfort of your own home, anywhere in the world until close of business September 18th 2020.

How It Works

The Virtual concerts will be available on-demand through Vimeo, on your computer, smartphone, or tablet until Friday 18th September. The information below will help you make sure you’re ready to enjoy the performances.

  • Visit our Masters of Tradition, Vimeo On Demand page here.
  • If you don’t already have a Vimeo account, you will need to set one up. It’s very straightforward – all you need is a username and password to set it up.
  • To purchase a single video, a selection of videos or the full series you will need a credit card or paypal, just like for any online purchase.
  • The videos will be available to purchase and view until Friday 18th September.
  • The full series package of Virtual events can be pre-ordered on the On Demand page at any time.
  • The individual Virtual concerts will go online shortly before their scheduled time – and can be purchased from then. We’ll update this page with the links as they become available.
  • After purchase you can access the performance(s) as many times as you’d like until Friday 18th September.
