We’re starting to build a set dancing community here at McTeggart! We’d love for you to join us to dance throughout the Celtic year.


2024-2025 Celtic Year Schedule – Ceili on the First Saturday of the Celtic Season

Samhain (Winter): November 2, 2024, 5-8PM

Imbolc (Spring): February 1, 2025, 5-8PM

Bealtaine (Summer): May 3, 2025, 7-10PM

Lúnasa (Fall): August 2, 2025, 7-10PM


Following the style of set dancing céilithe held in Ireland, we invite you to bring biscuits (cookies) and tea to share.

Participants with DanceStudio Pro accounts can have their accounts charged for the event. Folks can also pay $10 at the door! No payments on Eventbrite - simply reserve your spot.

See you on the dance floor!

What to wear: Wear comfortable clothes for dancing and shoes with smooth or leather soles. Rubber-soled shoes with treads tend to stick on our floor, and aren’t terribly fun for dancing!

What to expect: We are building our set dancing skills! Some of the dances are better-known to the dancers, and others are not. If you’re a complete beginner, please join us. You’ll be supported through better-known dances by experienced dancers, and you’ll learn less familiar dances along with everyone else. You don’t need a partner, though you’re welcome to bring one.
