Kids’ Ceilidh

After a selling out in 2022, our immensely popular Kid?s Ceilidh is back for the Cairngorms Nature Festival this May! Whether you?re a complete beginners or know all the steps, there?s fun for all here.

With live traditional music from mighty musicians led by Grantown local, Hamish Napier, this will be an exciting, energetic and modern sound for everyone to jump about the hall to!

Hamish will talk everyone through the dances with fun and clear instructions, so no previous dance experience is necessary.

This is far from a formal dance workshop ? no tartan kilts or sashes necessary here! Instead, expect an informal fun-filled, mini ceilidh event. Trainers might be a good idea, instead of formal shoes. This is the perfect chance to learn (or brush up on) Scotland?s most beloved simple ceilidh dances: the ?Gay Gordons?, ?Canadian Barn Dance?, ?The Orcadian Strip the Willow?, and ?The Virginia Reel? and more!This event is part of the Cairngorms Nature Festival which runs from 12 – 21 May 2023. It’s a ten day festival with over 80 exciting events across the Cairngorms National Park celebrating the incredible landscapes and nature found here.
