The full package

A proper ceilidh, from first note to last dance

Expert calling

Our callers have called ceilidhs at Trafalgar Square and for the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall. Every dance is walked through first, so complete beginners can join in with confidence.

Top London musicians

A pool of the finest folk players in the South East: accordion, fiddle, guitar and double bass, with concertina and flute also available. There are always replacement musicians available if illness strikes.

Every kind of ceilidh

English, Scottish and Irish ceilidh dances plus American barn dances. We also cater for Polish weddings with plenty of Polish music if necessary.

PA for speeches

We can provide a PA system so your toasts, speeches and announcements are heard by every guest.

Disco package option

Keep the party going after the ceilidh ends with our optional disco package.

Folk music for weddings

Top folk and country musicians are also available for weddings: English, Scottish, Irish, American country, bluegrass, Gypsy jazz and French café music.
