Music

Muchty is famous for its traditional music. Kids can start young with the Early Learning Ceilidh Band. The Auchtermuchty Festival committee run a series of Traditional Music Workshops throughout the year in partnership with Elmwood College. And don't forget Auchtermuchty's most famous son was Sir Jimmy Shand, the popular and respected accordion player & band leader. His son Jimmy Shand Junior and his trio of musicians still play regularly in the community.

Theatre

The Auchtermuchty Theatre Group manage the annual pantomime and other theatrical preformances throughout the year. Watch the calendar for their popular events.

There's regular entertainment in the form of the Cycle Tavern's monthly pub quiz as well as music, dancing and bingo at the Auchtermuchty Bowling Club. Local business Kore Audio organise regular weekend rock gigs 'Live @ Fozzie's' (Forest Hills Hotel) whilst Letham Nights, in neighbouring Letham, showcases local talent in the village hall. 

 The Cycle hosts a monthly quiz night

All in all, there's rarely a weekend in Muchty without some form of entertainment!
