OUTLANDER IN CONCERT: ECHOES THROUGH THE HIGHLANDS Made World Premiere in Scotland
Sam Heughan and OUTLANDER: BLOOD OF MY BLOOD stars join Bear McCreary's score performed live at Usher Hall.
As fans around the world celebrate "World Outlander Day" today, stars, executive producers and concertgoers gathered in Scotland on May 30 at Usher Hall for the sold-out world premiere of "Outlander in Concert: Echoes Through the Highlands".
The live cinematic concert experience is inspired by the global hit franchise from Sony Pictures Television. Fans traveling from 40 countries came to experience the world premiere in Scotland. Talent and creative team members in attendance included Sam Heughan, John Bell, "Outlander: Blood of my Blood" stars Harriet Slater and Jamie Roy, executive producers Matthew B. Roberts and Maril Davis and other members of the creative team and producers behind the series.
Presented by GEA Live and Sony Pictures Television, the live experience pairs stunning cinematic visuals from all eight seasons of "Outlander" with the iconic score by Emmy Award-winning composer Bear McCreary, performed live by a 17-piece ensemble featuring a Celtic folk band, vocalists, conductor, orchestral musicians, and traditional instruments including bagpipes, whistles, bodhrán, harp, fiddle, hurdy-gurdy, and acoustic guitar. Centered around the epic romance of Jamie and Claire while also exploring fan-favorite characters and storylines from across the series, the concert features footage from the highly anticipated eighth and final season, which concluded its initial airing on STARZ (US) and MGM+ (UK) in May.
Scenic and lighting elements inspired by the series, including the iconic Craigh na Dun standing stones and druid lanterns, help transport audiences into the world of "Outlander," with exclusive tour merchandise also available for fans attending the live experience. Throughout the evening, audiences will relive the romance, heartbreak, battles and emotional moments that defined the beloved series. The global tour launches September 26 in Brooklyn, New York, as part of a North American run visiting more than 45 cities across the United States and Canada before heading to 16 cities across Europe in February 2027.
Based on Diana Gabaldon's internationally bestselling novels, "Outlander" has become a global phenomenon spanning television, music, books and live entertainment. Additionally, the success of the "Outlander" TV franchise also sparked the prequel "Outlander: Blood of my Blood," which will premiere its second season this fall on STARZ in the US and MGM+ in the UK. 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.
"Outlander" is produced by Sony Pictures Television. Matthew B. Roberts, Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Toni Graphia, Luke Schelhaas, Andy Harries, Jim Kohlberg serve as executive producers. Caitríona Balfe and Sam Heughan also serve as executive producers.
