    Fans came from all over the world to say their farewells and to experience a moment that will remain in their hearts and minds forever.
    On the weekend of 17th - 18th August 2018, Runrig invited the world to Scotland, for what would turn out to be the two most poignant concerts in the band’s 45-year history. The Final Concerts were sold out in minutes. 50,000 fans from all over the world descended on Stirling to participate in “THE LAST DANCE”. For the band and their fans, these concerts were an emotional tour de force - something the fans have come to know and love over the years, but these were gigs like none other.
    Runrig’s last live concert “The Last Dance - Farewell Concert” will be available from August 16th 2019 on Blu-ray, 2DVD, 2CD, limited 3CD digipak, limited collector’s edition (2DVDs, 3CDs & numbered print inside a quality coffee table book), and digitally.
