What is the Ceilidh Club?
The Ceilidh Club is a taste of Scotland in London. Enjoy 3 hours of the best fun – a live band keeps you moving and a caller guides you through the steps – it’s perfect for the absolute beginner or the experienced ceilidh dancer.
Here are some things to remember. First of all, the caller explains each dance before you do it and gives instructions during the dance. Other dancers help you on your way so all you have to do is get stuck in and dance your socks off. It helps if you listen to the caller, furthermore try to dance considerately.
There’s a lovely cafe, traditional bar and the nicest cloakroom staff you’ll find anywhere. The cafe serves home cooked light meals and the bar is reasonable (for London anyway).
What is the schedule for the Ceilidh Club night?
The doors open at 7PM and dancing is from 8-11 with a break halfway to catch your breath. The sprung dance floor is great. There is no dress code but we appreciate tartan (and you look good in it too). The hall has an air cooling system, however please remember to wear something comfy for dancing. The night ends with the Robert Burns Song Auld Lang Syne
