KT Tunstall, the Grammy-nominated, Brit Award-winning artist, will bring her electrifying live show to The Genesis Scottish Open on Saturday, 12th July. Known for her soulful voice, dynamic stage presence, and pioneering loop pedal performances, Tunstall has captivated audiences worldwide with hits like Black Horse and the Cherry Tree and Suddenly I See. A true trailblazer, she has spent two decades evolving her sound, seamlessly blending folk, rock, and pop, while remaining one of the most compelling live performers of her generation. Her headline set marks a major milestone for the tournament, as a performer of her stature takes centre stage at the event for the first time, adding an exciting new dimension to Scotland’s national open.
Following the success of 2024, the collaboration between The Genesis Scottish Open and Fringe by the Sea returns for its second year, with the Fringe by the Tee pop-up stage at the Renaissance Club in East Lothian once again enhancing the fan experience at the global sporting event, which blends world-class golf and entertainment. Set to be the highlight of the Fan Zone at Scotland’s national open from 9-13 July, Fringe by the Tee creates a family-friendly atmosphere, complementing the tournament with live music and cultural programming.
KT Tunstall’s headline slot is just the beginning - from Wednesday, 9th July to Sunday, 13th July, there’s a packed lineup of exciting entertainment still to be revealed, featuring a mix of live music, comedy, and family-friendly shows. With something for everyone, this year’s Fringe by the Tee promises non-stop fun for fans of all ages.
This partnership unites two award-winning events, with The Genesis Scottish Open and Fringe by the Sea earning Outstanding Sporting Event and Outstanding Cultural Event or Festival accolades at the 2023 Scottish Thistle Awards.
The 2025 Genesis Scottish Open – co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and PGA TOUR – will see some of the world’s best golfers join Scottish star and defending champion Robert MacIntyre.
Rory Colville, Genesis Scottish Open Championship Director, said: “We’re thrilled to showcase an artist of KT’s calibre at The Genesis Scottish Open this summer. Known for world-class golf, the tournament will be further elevated with acts like KT Tunstall on the Fringe by the Tee stage, offering fans of all ages an unforgettable experience. It’s a pleasure to partner with another award-winning local event to highlight the best North Berwick, East Lothian and Scotland has to offer.”
Rory Steel, Festival Director of Fringe by the Sea, said: “The booking of Scottish legend KT Tunstall for Fringe By The Tee takes our partnership with The Genesis Scottish Open to the next level and gives both golf and music fans an awesome day out to relish. We’ve got more exciting announcements to make in the coming months. Whether you're here for the world-class golf or incredible entertainment, East Lothian is the place to be this summer – there's something for everyone.”
A range of ticket options for the 2024 Genesis Scottish Open, including daily general admission tickets, season tickets, Ticket+ and Green on 18 premium hospitality packages, are available to purchase at etg.golf/GSO25Tickets
