About the event
Rennie Pearson and United Vibrations Present...
A Celtic Soirée!
Join us for an unforgettable evening of heart-lifting Celtic music, joyous dancing, and nourishing food/drink to warm your winter spirit.
This lively celebration features a high-energy Céilidh (pronounced "kay-lee") – a traditional Gaelic social gathering filled with group dancing, spirited music, and inclusive fun for all experience levels. Whether you're an experienced dancer or trying it for the first time, you'll be guided through the steps and welcomed onto the dance floor.
Live music from two incredible acts:
Half Light deliver bold, hypnotic, original Celtic music with soaring flutes, whistles, mesmerising guitar, and rich pedal textures. Their live shows blend toe-tapping jigs, reels, and powerful songs with high-octane energy and emotional depth. Featuring flute virtuoso Rennie Pearson and award-winning guitarist Bob McNeill, Half Light bring an intimate concert act that is full of class and finesse.
