Up and Coming Events
Ticket Sales
Show Promoters from outwith Orkney continually monitor tickets sales. Orcadians are normally very slow to commit to buying tickets, this runs the risk of the shows being pulled. Can I kindly suggest if you are interested in any show, please can you purchase your tickets sooner rather than later, full refunds will be given for any shows that get cancelled.

Rich Hall Chin Music
Comedian and Musician returning to the Orkney Theatre on the 24th October 2026 with his Chin Music Tour.
“Chin Music” has two meanings. One is idle talk. The other is a brushback throw in baseball or cricket to intimidate the batter. Both describe Rich Hall’s comedy. Idle but intimidating. Sharp, quick, splenetic, and sublimely improvisational. If you saw him last time you'll want to come back, if you missed him now is the chance to see him at your local venue because he never disappoints. Ever.

Calum MacPhail
Scottish singer, songwriter, and accordionist Calum MacPhail is making waves with his vibrant fusion of traditional Scottish folk and Irish music.
An exciting new presence on the Celtic live music scene, Calum first made his mark at just 16 when he founded the award-winning folk band Hò-rò, touring internationally and captivating audiences with his high-energy performances. Now, he brings his latest show to the stage alongside his talented band, fresh from the release of his acclaimed album ‘Highlands to Heartlands’, featuring the fan-favourite single ‘Bonnie Wee Jeannie.’
In the past two years, Calum has built a loyal fanbase through sold-out performances, including standout shows at the Eden Court Theatre in Inverness and appearances at the prestigious Royal Highland Show. His growing reputation has also led to support slots for some of Ireland’s biggest stars, including The Tumbling Paddies, Nathan Carter, and Derek Ryan. His success has extended across the Irish Sea, with numerous highly successful media and promotional tours of Ireland.
