Kirker Holidays unveils 2027 cultural and music programme

Kirker Holidays has released its 2027 Cultural Tours and Music Holidays brochure, featuring a range of new small-group itineraries, destinations and exclusive partnerships.

The operator’s new collection includes its first music festival in Northumberland, held at the five-star Matfen Hall and featuring performances by the Karski Quartet, alongside a new domestic itinerary, The Potteries Uncovered, created in collaboration with Dame Emma Bridgewater.

Other new additions for 2027 include a food and wine tour in Extremadura, Spain, led by chef Omar Allibhoy; a Beethoven-themed music holiday in Antwerp; a history tour of southeastern Turkey; and an itinerary exploring the mountains and monasteries of Georgia.

Ted Wake, managing director of Kirker Holidays and Travel Weekly columnist, said: “Our Cultural Tours programme has always been about bringing destinations to life through the insight and enthusiasm of exceptional experts.

“Whether exploring Renaissance art in Italy, discovering Europe’s finest wine regions, uncovering archaeological treasures or attending world-class music and opera events, our guests travel in small groups of like-minded travellers and enjoy privileged access, expert guidance and a genuinely personal experience.”

Prices for the new 2027 programme start at £998 per person for the three-night Potteries Uncovered tour, rising to £3,498 per person for the seven-night Georgia itinerary.

The 2027 Cultural Tours & Music Holidays brochure is available to order in print or digital format via the Kirker trade site.
