The Opderschmelz cultural centre in Dudelange has announced that Celtic group The Outside Track will bring their This is The Essence of Irish & Scottish Christmas show to the venue on Sunday 7 December 2025, at 20:00.

The Outside Track consists of members Mairi Rankin (fiddle), Ailie Robertson (harp), Fiona Black (accordion) and Teresa Horgan (flute) who have performed together for over ten years.

The organisers describe the group as “virtuoso musicians with immense energy who have brought every hall to the boil with their jigs and reels”. They will bring these customs and traditions to life with their refreshing and creative interpretation of Celtic music with a performance which will feature "exuberant playfulness, impressive virtuosity, tap dance interludes, unconventional arrangements and singers with unique voices".

Tickets cost €20 (pre-sale); €25 (on the door); free entry for Kulturpass holders.
