Aberdeen Highland Games

Ceilidh

Following the excitement of the Highland Games will be an authentic Scottish Ceilidh. You may well ask, "what is a Ceilidh?". The English Dictionary defines a ceilidh (pronounced kay-lee) as “an informal social gathering, with songs, story-telling, music and dancing". The most important thing to know about a ceilidh is that the dances are for everyone to dance to. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never danced before, have two left feet or even three! Everyone is welcome at a ceilidh and you’ll be astonished how hard it is not to end up dancing!

So there is only one way to find out what a Ceilidh is... come along to the Aberdeen Highland Games' Ceilidh on Saturday July 3rd this year and find out for yourself!
