What is The Living Tradition magazine? 

The Living Tradition is no longer publishing a print magazine.  For 30 years it was a full colour, bi-monthly Folk & Traditional music magazine. In that time we managed to build a great reputation and solid readership base around the globe. Based in Ayrshire, Scotland and Donegal, Ireland, a dedicated team of folk and traditional music enthusiasts were the people responsible for the running of The Living Tradition, with their past experience ranging from events organisation to live performing. 

The main aim of the magazine was to highlight the rich heritage of traditional music in the UK, Ireland and further afield, and attempt to bring it to a wider audience.
