A live ensemble of musicians and vocalists will perform with traditional Scottish instruments including bagpipes, fiddles, and the hurdy-gurdy.
The music of Outlander has achieved remarkable acclaim, led by McCreary, whose work also includes the television series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and the video game “God of War.” Across seven successful soundtracks, the franchise has generated 500 million streams in 236 territories, with its iconic theme, “Outlander – The Skye Boat Song,” surpassing 49 million plays. The Outlander soundtrack stands as the best-selling title in Sony Pictures Television’s entire catalogue, underscoring the series’ enduring cultural impact on both screen and sound.
The score has long been central to the series’ emotional power, helping carry the soul of the story for fans worldwide. That global appeal is already clear, with concertgoers set to travel from 40 countries to experience Outlander in Concert: Echoes Through the Highlands in Scotland. On stage, the music and visuals combine to create a cinematic live event that is both immersive and unforgettable.
The Outlander television series is based on Diana Gabaldon’s internationally best-selling books, which have sold an estimated 50 million copies worldwide, with all nine novels gracing The New York Times Best Seller list. The global success of the Outlander TV franchise also sparked prequel Outlander: Blood of My Blood, which premiered last fall and is set to return for a second season. Previous seasons of Outlander along with Outlander: Blood of My Blood are available to stream on the STARZ app in the US and MGM+ in the UK.
