About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

We're sorry that for factors beyond our control, the October ceili had to be canceled. But we now have the factors under control and the November ceili will go forward.

Brigid's Well is a great location for a party of this kind. Please enter by the Cumberland Street entrance (see map).

The usual suspects will be host the event. Carol Ann Bowers will call the dances and there may even be a guest caller for a dance or two. The Céilí band under the leadership of Justin Thériault will provide the music. Entertainment at the break will be provided by outstanding harpist and teacher Mary Muckle and her Harp Choir.

There will be soda bread and tea at the end and refreshments can be bought at the bar at any time. People of all ages are welcome. We have found that our Sunday afternoon time slot has worked well for many people, especially young families, so we are pleased to be able to continue this arrangement.

No dance experience or partner is required. We will fix you up with someone and the dances will range from really easy to a bit more difficult.

Tickets are only $10.00 for members and $20.00 for non-members. We suggest you get them in advance in case it is a sellout, but if you wish to take your chances, they will be available at the door.

And of course, children under 12 are admitted free.

Organized by

Ottawa Irish Arts (Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann) (the English translation is Gathering of the Musicians of Ireland) was started in 1951 by a group of Irish pipers who were concerned that the traditional music of Ireland was in decline and in danger of being lost. Since that time, the organization has grown into a global movement involving tens of thousands of people and has come to encompass traditional Irish dance and the Irish language as well as the music.
