Dance the night away at this festive shindig!

About

Dance away at this festive shindig! Head of Woolwich Works for a Christmas ceilidh (pronounced kay-lee), where the Wraggle-Taggle team, one of the most popular, versatile and traditional ceilidh bands in town, will host you for an evening of music, movement and merriment. You can expect to dance to traditional folk music, guided by a caller who explains each dance.

Absolute beginners are welcome, as well as those that know the moves - and it's ideal for singles as much as groups of friends, families and couples. Expect a lively and joyful evening - comfy dancing shoes a must. Sure to bring the Christmas spirit to even the grouchiest scrooge.

Promising you a kilt-raising good time...and a bar!

* Suitable for ages 16+
