Little Folk Céilí | Garden Sessions

About

Get ready to skip, spin, and smile at our Little Folk Céilí, part of this weekend’s Garden Sessions — a lively, fun-filled introduction to traditional dance and music, made especially for children and families!

Led by friendly dance callers and musicians from the Oisin McCann Ceili Band, this joyful event invites little ones to join in simple group dances, learn easy steps, and feel the beat of live traditional music. No experience needed — just a sense of fun and a willingness to move!

Kids can dance on the lawn, join the Scavenger Hunt, Crafts and Storytelling as parents can unwind with a picnic, and everyone can soak in the sunshine and sounds.

Parents and carers are welcome to join in or cheer from the sidelines as kids twirl and clap along in a relaxed garden setting.

Bring comfy shoes, happy feet, and lots of energy — it’s time for the littlest folk to take the floor!

Tickets released on Monday 4 August 2025 at 12noon.
