Event Description

It's that time of year again, and it's time to put the Ceili back into Ceili-stmas! Join us to celebrate the season at our Christmas Ceili, on Saturday 12 December 2009. Lively, brilliant music is assured with the fantastic Jimmy Mullarkey Ceili Band.

To finish off the year with a festive bang we've put together a night featuring all the classic set dance favourites, including: Caledonian, North Kerry, Clare Lancers, Ballycommon, Mazurka, West Kerry, Newport, Baile Bhuirne, & the Plain set.

Wear something Christmassy - spot prizes on the night, dancing trivia and games. And don't forget to bring your Limerick! (See below)

See you there,

        Although this social network website was started by Boston set dancers, it is open to everyone. Set dancers are known to travel great distances for special set dancing events. It's also nice to know about dancing available in other locations as we travel for our other purposes.

        If you have a group and want to post information about it, this social networking website is a handy tool to get the word out.

        Need help getting a group or calendar started? Contact frank@joyofsets.com (or "send a message," if you are a member) for assistance.
